Haltwhistle is a market town in Northumberland, along the route between Newcastle and Carlisle, with a population of 4650 in 2021. It contrived to be named for a railway halt over 600 years before that railway arrived: Hautwysel means a hill between two forks of a river. Hadrian's Wall is the main reason to visit, the Roman frontier defence built in 122 AD.
