Help connect Stakeford
Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.
Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.
Give a hike and help get a for every one of Stakeford’s Slow Ways.

This is a lovely, simple route which crosses the Wansbeck bridge then follows the riverside path to the sea....

This way wasn't quite on my long distance route, but I thought it was worth a detour of a couple of miles to visit a pub named after a cricket legend of my childhood (Kanhai) and I found the town also has Hirst Park, where Jack and Bobby Charlton learned to play football as boys. The route is very simple on the road and no navigation is required, but the bridge and park at the Wansbeck are worth seeing....

On the approach to the bridge across the River Blyth you join the England Coast Path. from the bridge you are following the banks of the tidal River Blyth which is really nice....

I walked this on a crisp late November morning from Ashington to Stakeford. I was conscious of the traffic beside me all the way but there was plenty of interest. Elli's review is great so I don't need to add anything further....
Philip Le Marquand
Entirely on pavements alongside a moderately busy road but with a pleasant crossing of the River Wansbeck and the opportunity to divert into Wansbeck Riverside Park on the north bank. Pavements are narrow in parts but passable on foot or bike....
