Alston to Haltwhistle

The view from the Lambey Viaduct

Todays Last of the Summer Wine Walk was the South Tyne Trail following the old railway line from Alston to Haltwhistle. We started a couple of miles from Alston and walked 11 miles along the old railway to Haltwhistle. The Viaduct in the above photographs is the Lambley Viaduct over the South Tyne and we then walked over another Viaduct on the outskirts of Haltwhistle again over the South Tyne. A most enjoyable day including a stop at the Wallace Arms Pub in Featherstone for a sandwhich, chips, and a cup of tea. A real old fashioned pub with service without a smile.
