Can anyone explain the Nedderton/Netherton thing? All the old maps I've seen seem to consistently name the place Netherton, but all the modern maps call it Nedderton. Is it just a case of what locals called it vs the official name, and the local name has eventually stuck?
There's an old guy who always seems to be out walking around Bedlington - I usually see him somewhere between Wetherspoons and Morrisons - does anyone know anything more? - I've always been curious.
