The Duke of Northumberland's estates was given outline planning permission in May to build a supermarket and 49 homes on land at Amble.

Since then, there has been a groundswell of opinion in the town that people were not consulted properly prior to that application being approved.

A series of events are being held across the county to inform people of career opportunities with the service.

The Northumberland Theatre Company will perform its touring production of Whisky Galore at Acklington Community Hall later this month - bringing a real treat to a community which doesn't often get the chance to see top-notch theatre on its doorstep.

Parts of the 85-year-old Amble Clock Tower War Memorial were in need of repair and an extensive refurbishment has been carried out with help from English Heritage and the Wolffson Foundation.

The monument, which is managed by the Town Council, was originally unveiled in 1924, with representatives of the country's forces, including the Northumberland Fusiliers, present for the occasion.

George Taylor, Richard Armstrong and Andrew Allen Oliver, who lived at Hauxley, near Amble, were never seen again after their coble was caught in a storm in November 1929.

The tragedy rocked the close-knit village, and now the niece of one of the men has organised an exhibition to commemorate the 80th anniversary of their deaths.

Warkworth Show, in the grounds of the village castle, includes flowers, fruit, vegetables, home baking and a wide range of arts and crafts.

Also featured during the afternoon are a brass band, dancing, a children's fancy dress parade, face painting and a magician.

Admission is £4.50 adults, children £2.50 and a family ticket is £11. English Heritage members go free.
