Carriers' Way (Blanchland)

The Carriers' Way is a trackway running between Beldon and the Corbridge road. For part of its length the trackway runs as a deep hollow way. This was part of an important system of trackways associated with early lead mining activity and the movement of lead ore for smelting.
