From the Wikipedia article
Lowick () is a village in Northumberland, north east England. Lowick lies on the B6353 road, about 10 miles (16 km) south of Berwick-upon-Tweed. The Anglican St John the Baptist's Parish Church dates from 1794, but a chapel was built in the 12th century by monks of Lindisfarne. The Grade II* listed Barmoor Castle, a castellated Tudor-style country house, is about a mile to the west of the village. Lowick, Northumberland should not be confused with Lowick, Northamptonshire.
