  • On this video we braved the winter weather and hiked up to the summit of Windy Gyle in the Cheviot hills Northumberland.
    Windy Gyle is a mountain in the Cheviot Hills range, on the border between England and Scotland.[4] Like the other hills in the area, it is rounded and grass-covered. The Pennine Way crosses the summit, thus providing one possible route of ascent. Windy Gyle may also be climbed from the Coquet valley to the south (England), or from Cocklawfoot to the north. There are good views from the summit north towards the Scottish Borders, Eildon Hills and Edinburgh and south across the southern Cheviot Hills to the North Pennines.
    As part of the walk we passed a headstone which reads: "Murder Cleugh here in 1610 Robert Lumsden killed Isabella Sudden". Landowner Sudden who is said to have had a liking for married women stoned Isabella to death, realising she was due to bear his illegitimate child. The law eventually caught up with him and he was tried at Alnwick and was sentenced to a month in jail, almost getting away with murder.

    Great hike over one of The Cheviots finest. I was up a couple of weeks ago and couldn't believe the ordnance left lying around, even found a full clip of ammunition. Enjoyed tagging along, thanks for sharing. Mick.
