Alan Edgar (Eggy1948) Supporting Members May 28, 201610 yr Author stats Updated info on the Cross Tavern :- Following some research by the Bedlingtonshire History Society, during 2009-11, by Gloria Lawrie and another member they discovered that the Ale House was known as the Cross Inn, not Tavern, and it was located in the Market Place approximately where the shop numbered 20A is located now.

Maybe that is why I enjoy real ale! Last I saw of the research was at a FFHS exhibition at Stannington in 2011, but I thought it was going to Woodhorn. I still have most of my notes if any queries.'
