Wild North [30/01/2001] (Wild North)
If you go down to the castle at night, you're sure of a big surprise.
Thirlwall Castle takes its name from Hadrian's Wall, which supplied some of the stone it was fortified with in the 14th century. Originally the home of the Thirlwall family, it was abandoned by them as a residence in the 18th century and passed through various hands until it was taken over by the Northumberland National Park Authority. Despite the castle falling into disrepair 400 years ago, work continues to save the scheduled monument for generations to come, and for the wildlife which calls it home.

Wildlife & Nature in the North East
A cornucopia of wild delights in this series of nature programmes from the North East.
Made by filmmaker and agricultural journalist Charles Boden, these films sought to capture the best of wildlife projects in the region. However, they captured so much more, from a controversial visitor attraction that was later closed down by the authorities, to the birth of the first new osprey colony in England. This series is a time capsule of timeless things.
