On the way from the old A1 to the site you pass Heiferlaw tower. Shows that the site has been important throughout the ages.
"Built by the fourth Earl of Northumberland for the monks of Alnwick Abbey between 1470-89 (according to the built-in armorial panel), probably as a lookout and beacon to warn of attack from Scotland...."
