"This pub, once known as Ye Old Cross, is over 200 years old, with the building itself believed to have been built in the 17th century. The bottles in question lie sealed between two windows, untouched for two centuries due to an apparent curse. The last person to touch them was the original innkeeper, who immediately dropped dead."

"On Narrowgate is a pub with an unusual name, The Dirty Bottles. It was formerly known as Ye Old Cross Inn and was built in the 17th century. The odd name comes from centuries-old bottles standing in a bow window."

"Was there the 1st week after lockdown levels decreased in May 2021. The venue had good Covid management in place, with staff making sure visitors followed them for the safety of all. The food was really tasty."

"This intriguing museum, housed in a 19th-century church, stands just a few steps from the entrance to Alnwick Castle. The museum tells the story of Alnwick and the surrounding region, including the fascinating history of 'Rothbury Football', played between residents of Rothbury and Thropton, using Thropton bridge as one 'goal' and the porch of Rothbury's parish church as the other. Bailiffgate Museum also tells the story of the Alnwick Wait, a civic official who combined the jobs of a night watchman and a town musician."

"If you’re pondering what to do in Alnwick and you’re the kind of person who loves to get a real sense of a town’s history and culture, stop into the Bailiffgate Museum and Gallery. It’s located in the town’s Castle Quarter, the oldest part of Alnwick, in a gothic revival building that was once St. Mary’s Church. The museum emphasizes art, social history and textiles and is run by a cadre of well-informed volunteers."

"The gardens at Alnwick are unashamedly bold and contemporary and designed to thrill. You can easily spend a whole afternoon – or day – here and you’ll find children are entertained as much as garden lovers are absorbed by the plant collections. The centrepiece is the Grand Cascade, a huge modern waterfall lined with fountains that plunges over many tiers."
