Thorneyburn
Thorneyburn is a village in Northumberland, England, to the northwest of Bellingham.
Transport
Thorneyburn was served by Thorneyburn railway station on the Border Counties Railway which linked the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway, near Hexham, with the Border Union Railway at Riccarton Junction. The first section of the route was opened between Hexham and Chollerford in 1858, the remainder opening in 1862.[1] The line was closed to passengers by British Railways in 1956. Part of the line is now beneath the surface of Kielder Water.
To the west of the station was the Thorneyburn Tileworks.[2]
Religious sites
The church is dedicated to St Aidan.[3]

gollark: I got bored and am now slowly downloading all the textfiles.com archives and converting them to mildly more compressed zstandard archives. Or, well, watching a python script do taht.

gollark: I don't sanitize it everywhere, but it also doesn't have perms so it's fine.
