About Alnwick

Known for

Alnwick Castle (Harry Potter's Hogwarts), the Alnwick Garden, Barter Books (one of the world's great secondhand bookshops) and a market town with a disproportionate cultural life

A little history

The Percy family's castle has dominated Alnwick since the 11th century. The town grew as the medieval market centre for Northumberland. Barter Books, in the old railway station, has been one of Britain's great secondhand bookshops since 1991.

Local tip

Barter Books on a rainy afternoon is one of the great experiences of the North East — fires, coffee, thousands of books. The Alnwick Garden is extraordinary. The Thursday market.
