We will very soon be doing a number of articles on the history of Haltwhistle and would appreciate any old photographs which you have of Haltwhistle, the surrounding area or even those who have lived in Haltwhistle. The town has a history which goes back many years and the very fact it is just a few miles away from the Roman Wall makes it a very important part of the UK.

So whether you have all photographs of a football team, old photographs of the Roman Wall, old photographs of the mines which pepper the area or anything else you can think of, we would like you to send a copy with your full name and address to mark@haltwhistle.org.uk. We will ensure that all photographs published have the permission of the owner and those involved in the photograph in order to abide by current privacy laws.

We are also looking for new ideas with regards to Haltwhistle news, both modern day and historical, and would welcome the opportunity to speak with those who have perhaps lived in Haltwhistle the vast majority of their life and would like to express an opinion on any subject. It would also be interesting to do a number of articles on people who have lived in Haltwhistle and perhaps moved away to pastures new in order to get a different angle on modern day Haltwhistle.
