About

Longhorsley, Hepscott & Capheaton form a rural area west of Morpeth, characterised by farmland and scattered settlements. The landscape is defined by the River Wansbeck, which flows through the parishes, and areas of mixed woodland. Agriculture remains a central part of the local economy, with fields and farmsteads shaping the open views. The settlements themselves are small, centred around historic cores with stone-built houses and community halls.

A notable local landmark is Capheaton Hall, a 17th-century country house set within its own parkland. The area is crossed by several minor roads and public footpaths, connecting the villages to surrounding farmland and the wider countryside. This is a quiet part of Northumberland, with a sense of separation from the busier coastal and urban areas to the east.
