Cambian Dilston College

Dilston Castle is an unglazed 15th-century uninhabited tower house (and inactive Catholic chapel built for one family's services) at Dilston in the parish of Corbridge, Northumberland, England. Both are scheduled monuments and Grade I listed buildings giving them recognition for historic and architectural value as well protection from demolition. The three-storey tower was built by Sir William Claxton on the site of an earlier pele tower in the 15th century.

Devil's Water is a narrow, powerful river in Northumberland, England fed by many streams. A right-bank firmly north-flowing tributary of the Tyne, it ends at the north end of the rural township (estate) of Dilston along which Tyne bank boundary is a widening of the Tyne and longstanding bridge to Corbridge (the parish in which Dilston lies). It is formed from smaller burns and sikes between Embley and Hackford rising 3–6 miles (5–10 km) south and south-west of Hexham.Its tributaries include the Rowley Burn and West Dipton Burn, as suggested by the northward flow of the main stream, left-bank (rising in the west). Devil's Water figured large in the Battle of Hexham, 1464, a consolidatory, strategic win in the outlying presence of deposed king Henry VI of England between a large Yorkist army and small (pro-Henry) "Lancastrian" force.

Coria was a fort and town 2.5 miles (4.0 km) south of Hadrian's Wall, in the Roman province of Britannia on the junction of a major Roman north–south road (Dere Street) with the River Tyne and another Roman road (Stanegate), which ran east–west between Coria and Luguvalium (the modern Carlisle). Corbridge Roman Site is in the village of Corbridge in the county of Northumberland. It is in the guardianship of English Heritage and is partially exposed as a visitor attraction, including a site museum.

The Corbridge Lion, Northumberland, England, is an ancient Roman free-standing sandstone sculpture of a male lion standing on a prone animal (possibly a deer) on a semi-cylindrical coping stone base. Measuring 0.95m in length by 0.36m in width and 0.87m high, it was originally a piece of decorative funerary ornamentation from a tomb. It was subsequently re-used as a fountainhead by passing a water pipe through its mouth. It was found in a water tank in 1907 in excavations led by Leonard Woolley on Site II (a corridor building with tesselated floors, hypocausts, and painted wallplaster that has been suggested as a mansio or posting station) on the Roman site at Corbridge. It is believed to date to the 2nd or 3rd centuries AD.Woolley noted that it was found whilst he was at the bank in Corbridge collecting the workers' wages, and that when they revealed their discovery to him upon his return, the man who excavated it commented "when I first saw that there lion he had a blooming orange in 'is mouth!".At least four other stone lions have been found at Corbridge: two were excavated in association with the enclosure wall around a 2nd-century mausoleum at Shorden Brae, in the cemetery just west of the Roman town, one was found built into a wall in the village, and another (now lost) was in a private museum owned by Bartholomew Lumley during the early 19th century.The Corbridge Lion is now on display in the Corbridge Roman site museum run by English Heritage.

Corbridge Bridge is a 17th-century stone bridge across the River Tyne at Corbridge, Northumberland, England. The bridge used to carry the A68 road over the River Tyne, but since the opening of the Hexham bypass (A69) the A68 now crosses by the Styford Bridge, 3 miles (5 km) downstream of Corbridge. It is listed as a Grade I listed building by Historic England.

Corbridge Vicar's Pele is a pele tower in the village of Corbridge, Northumberland, England. It was a three-storey defensive pele tower, with one room to each storey, built in the churchyard in 1318, and used as the vicarage for the adjacent church. It is built largely from sandstone taken from the Roman fortress at Coria nearby. It was in use as a vicarage until the early 17th century. In the summer of 2016 the tower was re-opened as a wedding and events venue after a three-year redevelopment project.

Corbridge Town Hall is a municipal building in Princes Street in Corbridge, Northumberland, England. The building, which is now in commercial use, is a Grade II listed building.

The Battle of Corbridge took place on the banks of the River Tyne near the village of Corbridge in Northumberland in the year 918. The battle was referenced in the Annals of Ulster and the Chronicle of the Kings of Alba. The battle was fought between Norse-Gael leader Ragnall ua Ímair and his allies against the forces of Constantín mac Áeda, King of Scotland together with those of Ealdred I of Bamburgh who had previously been driven from his lands by Ragnall. The Historia de Sancto Cuthberto adds that English fought alongside Norsemen. The Annals of Ulster informs us that the Norse army divided itself into four columns, in one of which may have been Jarl Ottir Iarla, a long-time ally of Ragnall.The Scots destroyed the first three columns, but were ambushed by the last. This unit had remained hidden behind a hill and was commanded by Ragnall. The Scots, however, managed to escape without disaster. It seems that it was an indecisive engagement, although it did allow Ragnall to further establish himself in Northumbria. In 919, Ragnall descended on York where he took the city and had himself proclaimed king. The Bernicians remained under him, although Ealdred I of Bamburgh and Domnall I, king of Strathclyde, paid homage to the king of England.In 1950, F. T. Wainwright argued that there were two battles of Corbridge in 914 and 918, and his view was widely accepted for over fifty years, but since around 2006 historians have taken the view that there was only one battle in 918.

Corbridge is a village in Northumberland, England, 16 miles (26 km) west of Newcastle and 4 miles (6 km) east of Hexham. Villages nearby include Halton, Acomb, Aydon and Sandhoe.

Sandhoe Hall, also once known as Sandhoe House, is a 19th-century country house situated at Sandhoe, Northumberland. It is a Grade II listed building. The Sandhoe estate was owned by the Errington family of nearby Beaufront, but when Henry Errington died childless in 1819, it passed to his great-grandnephew Rowland Stanley of Puddington Hall, Cheshire, son of Sir Thomas Stanley Bt (see Errington baronets). Stanley changed his name to Errington. He was High Sheriff of Northumberland in 1855 and became the 11th Errington Baronet in 1863. In 1850 he commissioned architect John Dobson to rebuild the old house. The south and east fronts are four-bayed with two storeys and alternately gabled attics. The northwest service wing incorporates some of the fabric of the original house. The house had another wing in the 19th century on the left when viewed from the front ( see old photo below ) its outline can be traced on the northwest service wing. It now forms part of a courtyard and stable house. Typically Victorian, its front is offset with a utilitarian design and layout to the northwest servants wing. The original house is described as being in the Elizabethan style with Dobson building chimneys with an Elizabethan height to them but in a Victorian style. It would be interesting to know what the original house looked like. The main entrance gate, built later than the house around 1870, is in a heavy rusticated style with fleur-de-lys cast-iron door furniture and ashlar dressings with Gothic touches- a motto "virtue" appears above the main gate, with pedestrian access gates adjacent. The grounds contain a monument in the form of a cross approximately four metres high. Points of interest in the house include heraldic stained-glass windows and drainpipes with stone carved lions heads above them. The grounds have terraced gardens on the slope the house is situated on, with a large fountain, a tennis court and an ice house.

Sandhoe is a hamlet and civil parish in Northumberland, England. It lies about 3 kilometres (2 mi) northwest of Corbridge and 3 kilometres south of Hadrian's Wall. The parish touches Acomb, Corbridge, Hexham and Wall.
