Corbridge is a civil parish in Northumberland, sitting on the south bank of the River Tyne and tucked close to the line of Hadrian's Wall. Its historic core is a picturesque stone-built village with a strong Roman legacy - the remains at the Corbridge Roman Site (once the fort-town Corstopitum) and a museum attract history enthusiasts as well as walkers exploring the wall and the surrounding countryside.
Today the parish combines a lively local community with a steady stream of visitors: independent shops, cafés and antique dealers sit alongside farming and equestrian activity in the surrounding countryside, and many residents commute to nearby Hexham or Newcastle. Its riverside paths, conservation area and access to the North Pennines make it popular for outdoor recreation while village events and clubs sustain a strong social life.
