Some Cornhill On Tweed Cottages

Little more than a mile from Coldstream, on the northern edge of Northumberland on the Scottish border, lies the village of Cornhill. Originally known as Cornell, parish carries the same name and includes the villages of Old and New Heaton and Tillmouth. An eighteenth century five arch bridge spans the river Tweed a mile to the east of the village. Formerly part of County Durham for political reasons, it was separated and then joined with Northumberland in 1844 by an Act of Parliament. The first evidence of occupation is pre Bronze Age but it is only after the Norman Conquest that most remains have been found, with much evidence of Roman occupation and the Iron Age.
