About Fencing in Bedlington

Bedlington is a town in south east Northumberland whose population grew rapidly through the nineteenth century as coal mining expanded north of the River Blyth, with three significant collieries once operating within the parish boundaries. The town also gave its name to the Bedlington Terrier, a distinctive breed of dog originally bred by local miners for use in the pits. Today the town is mostly residential, with housing spreading out from the older centre along the river valley. Our directory lists fencing suppliers and installers covering the NE22 postcode area.

Types of Materials found in Bedlington

Bedlington sits within the Northumberland Coalfield, where Coal Measures sandstone, shale and coal seams lie beneath the town, extensively worked by the collieries that once operated within the parish. Above this bedrock, most residential ground is glacial boulder clay, common across the wider North East, which holds water and can drain slowly after sustained rain. Ground closer to the River Blyth can include softer alluvial deposits typical of the river valley.
