Welcome to Yett Burn

Yett Burn is a small river that flows through the county of Northumberland in England. It is a tributary of the River Coquet and is approximately 10 miles long. The river rises in the Cheviot Hills and flows through the villages of Alwinton and Harbottle before joining the River Coquet near the town of Rothbury.

Yett Burn is a popular destination for anglers, who come to fish for brown trout and grayling. The river is also home to a variety of wildlife, including otters, kingfishers, and dippers. The surrounding countryside is a mix of moorland, woodland, and farmland, providing a diverse habitat for many different species.

The river is also steeped in history, with several ancient sites located along its banks. These include the remains of a Roman fort at Chew Green and the ruins of Harbottle Castle, a medieval fortress that was once the seat of the powerful Umfraville family. Yett Burn is a beautiful and tranquil spot, offering visitors a chance to explore the natural beauty and rich history of Northumberland.
