accommodation in Belford. Belford village is situated a short
distance off the main A1 trunk road, 49 miles north of Newcastle
within a vale, sheltered from the easterly winds by a line of
nearby hills. These hills give way to the fertile Northumberland
coastal plain, and the area around Belford is mainly agricultural,
supporting both animals and crops. Belford's history is that
of a post-town, situated on the post road between London and
Edinburgh. The Blue Bell was a thriving coaching inn, serving
the many coaches and travellers that used the road. Much earlier
than that Margaret Tudor, daughter of King Henry VII, was recorded
as having stayed at Belford on her progress north to marry James
IV of Scotland in 1502. Also see Belford
