Looking over the River Coquet to the cottage set in the trees of Ashy Bank, with Ferny Wood above.

Peels Cottage is described in the OS Name Book for Alwinton (c1860) as "A Small Cottage on the margin of the River Coquet, occupied by P. [Percival) F. Clennell's Game Keeper."

Peels NT9404 was once a township separated from neighbouring Harbottle by the River Coquet. As Chirmundesden, a name now unknown in the area, it was one of the Ten Towns of Coquetdale.
"The ten towns in Coquetdale by their ancient custome owe their service to Harbotle in Rydsdale to be comaunded by the Capten there to serve in feild on horse or on foote in the Princes affaires for the defence of the Border lands" (1604 Survey, 116).
