A wide area view of the Ogle area
north west of Newcastle
today.
A 1610 map shows a river that can be
followed westward from Blithes (Blyth) past Ogle and Belsay castle. The
river forks south half way to Ogle - take the north fork. The river flows
like a "U" to the north of Ogle castle, placing the castle in a more
defendable location. |
