ponteland

Ponteland is a village situated in Northumberland near Newcastle upon Tyne, England. The name means island in the Pont , as the area consisted of a small piece of solid ground around St. Mary''s church and the old bridge, surrounded by marshland. This marshland is now drained, with housing built on top of it. The Pont river joins the Blyth river further downstream.

Ponteland is notable for its Pele tower, George Hall, the Diamond Inn, its bridge, and the churches of St Mary''s and St Matthew''s. It is also notable for an affluent residential area, Darras Hall. Ponteland previously boasted a small castle, which was destroyed by the Scottish army under the Earl of Douglas the day before the Battle of Otterburn. The Blackbird Inn now stands on the site and is rumoured to contain an old tunnel connecting it to St Mary''s church. The tunnel is supposedly bricked up behind the fireplace in The Tunnel Room.

Ponteland was once served by a branch line of the North Eastern Railway from Newcastle upon Tyne, with a short spur to Darras Hall, but this line was an early casualty, losing its passenger services in 1929 after passenger numbers failed to meet expectations. There were initially plans to electrify the line, these being abandoned in 1907. However, a substantial part of the branch has since been resurrected as part of the Tyne and Wear Metro system, to serve Newcastle Airport.
