Location
The village of Wark is situated in North Northumberland close to the Scottish Border, on the banks of the River Tweed. Some two miles west of Cornhill on Tweed, Wark was part of the much fought over “debatable lands” disputed territory before the Border was settled with nearby Wark Castle giving an indication of the part it had to play in Borders history. Delightful river walks abound with the nearby Tweed famous for its superb salmon fishing. The charming town of Kelso is just over the Border some seven miles west with Berwick upon Tweed 14 miles east providing excellent shopping facilities, road and rail links.
