North Pennines

Encyclopedia : N : NO : NOR : North Pennines


The North Pennines is the northernmost part of the so-called 'backbone of England', the range of hills which runs through the centre of the northern half of England, from north to south.

It has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty for its moorland scenery, the product of centuries of farming and leadmining. Isaac's Tea Trail is a circular route of 58 kilometers around the area, running from Ninebanks via Allendale, Nenthead and Alston.
