The nearest city, Newcastle upon Tyne is south of the village and the Scottish border is about an hour away.

The oldest dates to around the 15th Century,〔(Images of England - Detailed Record for Old Felton Bridge ) (accessed 4 July 2010)〕 while the other was built in 1926. The older bridge is closed to traffic, and is often used for village events including carol singing at Christmas. Felton has a close community centred on events in the village, spread across the calendar. Every summer Felton has a fair and a fun run around the village, whilst a pantomime was performed in the village hall for the ninth time this year. Felton has two shops; a newsagent, artisan bakery and restaurant, and the other a post office and village store. It also has a hairdresser and doctors surgery. The Village magazine, ''The Bridge'', was first published a few years ago, and is delivered to the villagers bimonthly. Church of St Michael and All Angels is a Grade I listed building. == Education == Felton Church of England First School has served the village for years and plays a vital role in the village community, organising and holding events. It serves children between the ages of 3 to 9, from where they (mostly) go on to the middle school, Lindisfarne Middle School, in Alnwick. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Felton, Northumberland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
