St. Andrew’s Church in Corbridge is one of the oldest and most historic churches in Northumberland, with roots dating back to 674 AD, when St. Wilfrid founded a monastery here. Although the original timber-framed building has disappeared, the current church still incorporates Roman stonework from the nearby Corstopitum Fort, including an impressive tower arch dating from around 150 AD. Saxon and Norman elements include a Saxon window, a Norman zigzag doorway, and a 13th-century chancel. Vicar’s Pele Tower: a 14th-century fortified tower house built with Roman stone, once a refuge from Scottish raids. King’s Oven: a communal bread oven dating from 1310, still visible on the site. Memorial Gate: commemorates 108 local men who died in WWI.

Hexham Moot Hall is an impressive medieval gatehouse dating from around 1379, situated on the east side of the Market Place. It was built by order of the Archbishop of York, Alexander Neville, as a gateway to the walled complex surrounding the Old Gaol. A Grade I listed building, it is one of the best-preserved medieval courthouses in Northern England. It comprises a four-story tower with a vaulted doorway on the ground floor and a courtroom on the first floor. The tower features Gothic windows, a machicolated parapet, and a three-story annex with a stepped gable. It served as the Hexhamshire Courthouse until 1572, and then for the midsummer quarter sessions until 1838.

Hexham Old Gaol is England's oldest purpose-built prison, founded in 1333 by William Melton, the Archbishop of York. Located on Hallgate in the center of Hexham, it was built with stone from Roman Corbridge and served for centuries as a prison for convicts from Hexhamshire and the English Middle March. A Grade I listed building in medieval style, it features thick walls and vaulted cellars.

Hexham Abbey is one of England's oldest and most impressive churches. The abbey was originally founded in 674 AD by St. Wilfrid, using stones from nearby Roman ruins. The oldest part—the Saxon crypt—is still intact and represents a rare remnant of early Christian architecture. Inside, you'll find stained glass, the Roman tombstone of Flavinus, a 1st-century standard-bearer, an impressive Phelps organ from 1974, and a frith stool (Saxon bishop's chair). Admission to the abbey is free, with a small charge for the crypt.
