Hepscott is a small, largely rural parish in Northumberland, England, sitting a few miles from the market town of Morpeth. It occupies rolling agricultural countryside and retains a quiet village character, with a number of historic buildings centred on the old manor, Hepscott Hall, which points to medieval and post‑medieval roots in the locality.
Today the local economy is still influenced by farming, though many residents commute to nearby towns and the wider North East for work; socially the parish maintains a close‑knit feel through village activities and conservation interests, and the surviving architecture and landscape are often the focus of local pride.
