Hexham

A view of Hexham taken from the racecourse car park. Hexham Abbey can be seen almost dead centre.

It's unfortunate that many views of Hexham are dominated by the Egger factory. The column of steam can be seen from several miles back on the A69 from Newcastle. The factory is not the most attractive first impression of Hexham but as the largest employer in the area it is a necessary evil. Many many families will be glad its there.

A beautiful day in the Tyne Valley but boy does it feel cold.
