St. Cuthbert’s Church in Bellingham is an impressive 13th-century church building with a rare stone barrel vault, built to withstand repeated arson attacks by Border Reivers. The church exudes history, with old stained glass windows, cannonballs in the roof, monuments, and a mysterious gravestone called the Lang Pack, linked to a local legend about a failed burglary. Next to the church is St. Cuthbert’s Well, a spring said to have healing properties—a pleasant place to refill your water bottle or simply relax.

Bellingham (Northumberland) This charming village on the River North Tyne is a first stop on the Reivers through the rugged north of England. As the gateway to Northumberland National Park and the iconic Pennine Way, Bellingham offers both natural beauty and cultural heritage, such as St. Cuthbert's Church and the Heritage Centre.

At the Kielder Dam spillway, three striking stones—known as the Waterstones—commemorate the reservoir's official opening by Queen Elizabeth II in May 1982. This understated art installation offers views of the vast water, the imposing valve tower, and the technical heart of England's largest hydroelectric system. Cyclists following the Reivers Route will find a place where art, nature, and infrastructure converge—a brief stop that invites reflection and a photo with royal flair.

Bellingham Bridge is a distinctive stone arch bridge over the River North Tyne, believed to have been built in the 19th century and a Grade II listed structure since 1985. Part of the Reivers Route, it provides a tranquil passage with beautiful views of the flowing water and the surrounding countryside.
