Chathill
Chathill is a village in Northumberland, in England. It is situated about 9 miles (14 km) north of Alnwick and three miles (5 km) inland from the North Sea coast. Chathill is inside the parliamentary constituency of Berwick-upon-Tweed. The village includes a permanent population of below 10000 people. It's served by Chathill railway station. The station also serves the close by villages of Seahouses, Embleton, Bamburgh and Belford. While positioned on the East Coast Main Line, the station is served by just two arrivals and departures, Mondays to Saturdays, delivering commuting links to and from Newcastle upon Tyne. The station was for a lot of years served by loco-hauled stopping trains in between Newcastle, Berwick-upon-Tweed & Edinburgh Waverley (the British Rail timetable for 1982 had four departures each way from here), but these were reduced in frequency and, therefore, curtailed at Berwick by BR at the latter end of the 1980s and subsequently withdrawn altogether north of Chathill following the introduction of electric working on the ECML in 1991. Chathill is recognised as being home to Preston Pele Tower, which was built between 1392 and 1399. One of its former owners was Sir Guiscard Harbottle of Beamish, who was killed at the Battle of Flodden, the conflict involving the Kingdom of England and Scotland, who was also an ancestor of Diana, Princess of Wales. The tower features a clock, which was established in 1864, and it features mechanisms similar to Big Ben.
