Plenmeller with Whitfield is a rural civil parish in Northumberland, England, lying a few miles west of Haltwhistle in the South Tyne valley. The area is characterised by rolling farmland, mixed woodland and expanses of moorland, and is within easy reach of Hadrian's Wall country and the Pennines, which makes it a quiet base for walkers and birdwatchers.

Community life is small-scale and resilient, with the landscape and heritage attracting visitors interested in outdoor recreation and local history.
