Welcome to Ninebanks

Ninebanks is a small village located in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Northumberland, England. The village is situated on the banks of the River West Allen and is surrounded by stunning landscapes of rolling hills, moorlands, and forests. Ninebanks is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts who come to explore the area's many walking and cycling trails, as well as its fishing and wildlife watching opportunities.

One of the main attractions in Ninebanks is the historic St. Mark's Church, which dates back to the 12th century.
