Explore Bedlington

Known for

The Bedlington Terrier (the lamb-like dog breed that originated here), the coal mining heritage, and a Northumberland market town with a surprisingly famous canine connection

A little history

The Bedlington Terrier — with its distinctive lamb-like appearance, originally bred for ratting and rabbit coursing — was developed in Bedlington in the early 19th century. The town grew as a coal mining centre. The Terrier remains the town's most famous export.

📍 Local tip

The town centre for local shopping. The Bedlington Country Park for walking along the Wansbeck. The Terrier connection is celebrated locally — the breed is genuinely extraordinary looking.
