Broomhaugh and Riding is a small, mainly rural parish in Northumberland, England, sitting in the pleasant Tyne Valley on the south bank of the River Tyne. It centres on the villages of Broomhaugh and Riding Mill, the latter served by a station on the Tyne Valley Line, and lies within easy reach of market towns such as Hexham and Corbridge and the Roman frontier around Hadrian's Wall.
The area has a mix of farming and commuter households, attractive stone cottages and several listed buildings, with a strong community life around the village hall, pubs and local clubs; riverside walks, fishing and conservation interest are popular. Its history is quietly layered - rural and transport links dating back to the 19th century and nearby Roman remains give the place a character that combines countryside tranquillity with good access to larger centres.
