Alston, situated in the county of Cumbria in North West England, is a unique market town that holds the distinction of being one of the highest towns in England. At an elevation of around 1,000 feet above sea level, it offers panoramic views of the surrounding North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Known for its cobbled streets, quaint stone buildings, and a narrow gauge railway, Alston has a distinct character that blends rural charm with a rich mining heritage. It serves as a vital center for the surrounding rural communities and offers an array of amenities including local shops, cafes, schools, and a community hospital. Despite its somewhat remote location, the town is accessible via scenic routes through the Pennines, making it a popular destination for tourists and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
Alston's local attractions are primarily anchored in its natural surroundings and historical roots. The South Tynedale Railway, a narrow-gauge heritage railway, offers a nostalgic journey through the stunning Pennine scenery. For those more inclined towards outdoor activities, the town provides easy access to a multitude of walking, cycling, and bird-watching opportunities in the North Pennines AONB. The Pennine Way, England's oldest National Trail, passes close by, attracting hikers from all over the country. The Nenthead Mines, an old lead mining complex, offer fascinating underground tours that delve into the area's industrial past. Moreover, the Alston Moor Golf Club presents golfing enthusiasts with challenging terrains set against a backdrop of breathtaking landscapes. The town itself also hosts various events and festivals throughout the year, including arts and crafts fairs and historical reenactments, adding to its appeal as a multifaceted destination.
Located in the eastern part of Cumbria, Alston is well-positioned for exploring other towns and attractions in the region and beyond. To the northwest is Brampton, with its proximity to Hadrian's Wall and rich historical sites like Lanercost Priory. Heading southwest will lead you to Penrith, known for its castle ruins and Ullswater, one of the Lake District's most beautiful lakes. Further to the west lies Carlisle, the administrative center of Cumbria, with its impressive cathedral and castle. If one heads southeast, the historic town of Hexham can be reached, renowned for Hexham Abbey and its vibrant market. Finally, to the northeast is Haltwhistle, another market town that claims to be the geographic center of Britain and offers additional entry points to the Hadrian's Wall Path. Each of these neighboring towns brings its own set of attractions and experiences, making Alston an ideal base for those looking to explore the multifaceted charm of Cumbria and the North Pennines.
