About Woodhorn - Planning Applications & Local Development

Woodhorn is a historic village located in Northumberland, approximately 2 miles east of Ashington. Now part of the parish of Newbiggin by the Sea, it was once a civil parish with a population of 219 as recorded in 1931. The village is associated with Wucestre, a site given to St Cuthbert by King Ceolwulf in 737, and is home to a medieval bell inscribed "Ave Maria," one of the oldest bells still in existence. This rich history may influence planning applications and developments in the area. It sits within the Newbiggin-by-the-Sea district.

There are currently no active flood warnings for the Woodhorn area, indicating a relatively low flood risk at present. This is a positive factor for both existing residents and those considering property purchases or new developments.

In terms of safety, there were no crimes reported in the immediate area during the most recent reporting period (May 2026). This makes Woodhorn a particularly low-crime area, which is often reflected in its desirability and property values.
