THE NORTHUMBRIAN JACOBITE TRAIL

A Guide to the 1715 and 1745 Jacobite Risings in the North of England

Walks, Drives and Places to Visit

This attractive and informative publication is produced in full colour and designed to open up/fold down to the format of a map. It gives a synopsis of the Jacobite Cause with particular reference to the Northumbrian Jacobites and contains a pull-out map featuring photographs and information on 26 places which have factual and legendary associations with the Risings of 1715 and 1745. It was conceived and planned by Frances Dickinson to complement her book Tracking a Legend, published 2001 – the idea arising from her numerous walks and visits whilst researching the fact and folklore of the period. The Trail Guide would be of interest to individuals and Local History Societies planning an outing around Jacobite Northumberland.

The Trail Guide can be purchased at Historic Dilston or by posting a cheque for £1.75 (to include p&p), made payable to Friends of Historic Dilston, to The Membership Secretary, Mary Rose Ridley, Mickley Moor West Farm, nr Hedley on the Hill, Stocksfield, Northumberland, NE3 7SS.

Information on Jacobite Trails (drives and short walks) run by the Friends of Historic Dilston is available upon request.
