The town of Haltwhistle promotes itself as the "Centre of Britain". Not sure how this is calculated but you can visit the "Centre of Britain Military Surplus" and the "Centre of Britain Hotel".

I believe strongly in shopping locally to support local employment. If you disregard the high level of hairdressers all the other shops are a nice mix.
