West Mickley /ˈmɪkl/ is a hamlet in the southern part of Northumberland, England.[1] It is located near the villages of High Mickley and Mickley Square, east of Stocksfield. It is also about half a mile or a bit more away from the town of Prudhoe and is south of the River Tyne. It is not a big village, being nearly half a mile in length with a main road stretching the full length of it (A695).

Things to do

There's a little park next to the houses and a field big enough for dogs to roam. Also there is a nice walk through the woods at the opposite side of the Road to the houses. Not many people use the park or the woods perfect for a peaceful walk, but the path is well visible. There is a pub called The Blue Bell Inn on a road called the Stonybank, hard to find but east of the petrol station at Branch End in Stocksfield.
