Map of the UK

Horncliffe is a small riverside village and civil parish in Northumberland, England, sitting on the north bank of the River Tweed with views across to Scotland. The setting is largely agricultural, with low-lying river meadows, scattered traditional cottages and easy access to the market town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, so it’s popular with walkers, birdwatchers and anglers who enjoy the Tweed’s wildlife and open countryside.

Historically the community’s story is shaped by its border location, with the tides of Anglo‑Scottish conflict and later peaceful trade both leaving traces in local buildings and place‑names. Today Horncliffe retains a quiet, village atmosphere: farming remains important, some residents commute to nearby towns, and a small active community life preserves local traditions and a sense of rural continuity.
