The Morpeth Chantry Bagpipe Museum

Read in an article from the Northumberland Gazette about this museum, which houses the largest collection of bagpipes in the world. Odd that such a museum would be in Northern England and not in Scotland.

I once spent part of a snowy January in the countryside around Rothbury after attending a rowdy Hogmany in Edinburgh. 250,000 Scots in a snowstorm, many in kilts and t-shirts, saying "Give us a snog" and singing Auld Lang Syne outside the Tron Church.

Here's a pic of the River Coquet near Elsdon.
