Sinderhope is a hamlet situated on the east Allen Valley in south-west Northumberland. It is in the civil parish of Allendale. The population is spread over farms in an area approximately 25 square miles (65 km2). The population is around 80. The mainstay of employment is sheep-farming. Wildlife is plentiful with many examples of rare birds of Great Britain, such as the black grouse, Eurasian whimbrel and Eurasian curlew. The local beauty spot is a ford with wild flowers and a wood called Oldman Bottom, often mistakenly called "Old Man's Bottom". The whole area is part of the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The community centre was once a school for the area, but now serves as a venue for various local activities
