Wolves of Hexham

Expanded History
I've added information on the border raids of C13-14, and on the 1715 rebellion. I've also expanded the section on the Abbey slightly, and in a fit of pedanticism I've changed the grammar on the Liberal attitude of the Courant. Sources include http://www.thenortheast.fsnet.co.uk --Duncan 15:05, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Michael Jackson???
Who in the right mind thought Michael Jackson (famous singer) was from Hexham?!?!?! What complete tripe!
p.s. I'm from Middlesbrough? ;)
Help with Street name
Can anyone help me?. I used to live in Hexham until i was 5, then my parents moved to Rugeley in Staffordshire because there was more employment in the midlands at the time (The Pits)
I used to live in a street near a school i attended for a year or so called Hexham east county primary school(I think)and the street was called wanless close or oneless close, as i remember i lived second from the top on the right, it was a steep street.
I can't seem to find any record of this street anywhere. I am thinking maybe it has changed names.
Has anyone any information on this? I know my memory is vague.
Thanks All
