This site in Northumberland, UK, is occasionally used for paragliding and features a small soaring ridge. It is located 12 miles from the sea, so sea breezes are common early in the day. The site record is 54.5 km. For more information on flights, visit: [NHPC Flights](http://www.aviabird.net/nhpc/temp1.1.php?id=6) The local club is the Northumbria Hang Gliding and Paragliding Club: [NHPC](http://www.nhpc.org.uk/) **Site Status:** The site is open during the lambing period, which runs from February through April. During this time, do not land in fields with sheep or lambs. If you are unsure about avoiding these fields, please refrain from flying during this period. Additionally, no flying is allowed on shooting days, which are every Friday and every second Saturday. For more information, contact Mr. E.J. Wrangham at 01688 217329 or 07966249677. **Location Info:** - Grid Reference: NU 069 206 - OS Map: Landranger 75 **Wind:** - Suitable for south to south-southwesterly winds. **Height:** - 761 feet above sea level (ASL). **Road Access:** - Head north on the A697 through Powburn towards Wooler. At the sawmill, turn right onto the B6346 and follow it to a T-junction, then turn left. This road leads to a large stone barn on your right and a row of cottages beneath Old Berwick. **Parking:** - Park at the side of the barn and walk up the track by the cottages. Alternatively, follow the track past the cottages through the gates. The parking area is on the grass to the right of the track. 4x4 vehicles may drive further up the track to top drive the site. **Take Off:** - Follow the path along the hilltop face. Look out for a Second World War pillbox; the take-off area is a few yards further on. **Landing:** - Top landing is on the flat area just after the tree plantation. Bottom landing is a small rectangle of grass to the left of the stream and right of the footbridge. The field under the face is also suitable for paragliders. **Flying:** - This site is recommended for very experienced hang gliders due to the limited bottom landing area. Be cautious of rocks if slope landing, and note that it can be turbulent in high winds. If the wind is off to the south, Titlington Pike may be a better option. **Hazards:** - Watch out for power lines by the road and rocks if slope landing. **Site Records:** - Paraglider: Chris Little, 08/09/2013, 26.8 km
