Cannon in the Valley

Knowing the history of the College Valley and it's association with Admiral Collingwood we had thought that these cannon alongside Hethpool house were maybe from one of the ships which fought at Trafalgar. However this visit we found a small plate attached to the cannon saying that in reality they were from Newcastle castle.

Oh...one final point our friends have asked us to point out how good the cottages in the Valley are for dog friendly holidays.
