Newbiggin-by-the-Sea
Newbiggin-by-the-Sea is a small town in Northumberland, England, lying on the North Sea coast. Once an important port for shipping grain and a coal mining town, it is still a small fishing port making use of traditional coble boats.
== History ==
It is widely although mistakenly noted that the town was originally called 'South Wallerick', and renamed Newbiggin after the Danish invasion. However the document on which this is based refers to 'Sanctum Walericium', or St. Waleric.〔J. Raine ed., 'The Priory of Hexham, its Chroniclers, Endowmnents and Annals. Vol. I: Appendix', The Publications of the Surtees Society vol.44 (1864)〕 This was the name of the church at Alnmouth, which was at one time called Newbiggin. There is no connection with Newbiggin-by-the-Sea. Newbiggin derives from OE nīwe (new) + ME bigging (building, house),〔Anthony David Mills, A Dictionary of British Place-Names (Oxford, 2003)〕 and this may refer to an extension of the early settlement and parish of Woodhorn.
