Northumberlandia – Lady of the North

April 19, 2017

Northumberlandia is a unique piece of public art set in a 46 acre community park with free public access and 4 miles of footpaths on and around the landform.

The centrepiece of the park is Northumberlandia, a stunning human landform sculpture of a reclining lady. Made of 1.5 million tonnes of rock, clay and soil, she is 100 feet high and a quarter of a mile long. Far from being a rigid manicured art form Northumberlandia is a living part of the countryside that will mature over time and change with the seasons. What you see when you visit is only the start of something that will evolve through generations.

It’s about a 40 minute drive to Northumberlandia from Drakestone Cottage. You could take a picnic and call into the Milkhope Centre for some country shopping while you’re in the area.
