Corbridge is a handsome market village in rural Northumberland in England, set on the north bank of the River Tyne in the Tyne Valley. It sits close to the line of Hadrian's Wall and overlies a significant Roman town, so visible ruins and a small museum are important local landmarks and draw for visitors.
The attractive, largely sandstone High Street is lined with independent shops, antique dealers, cafés and pubs, making Corbridge a popular stop for walkers and tourists and a desirable commuter base for nearby Hexham and Newcastle. The local economy mixes tourism, retail and surrounding agriculture, and the village retains an active community with seasonal markets, events and conservation-minded neighbourhood groups.
