🏍️ *FEATHERSTONE POW CAMP | Hidden History Rides* On this episode of **Hidden History Rides**, I’m heading into Northumberland to uncover the story of **Featherstone Park Prisoner of War Camp**, one of Britain’s fascinating remnants of the Second World War. Located near *Haltwhistle and Featherstone Castle**, **Featherstone Park POW Camp* was established during *World War Two* and became one of the largest prisoner of war camps in Britain. Thousands of German prisoners were held here, including officers and men captured during the later stages of the war. Today, much of the camp has disappeared back into the Northumberland countryside, but traces of its past can still be found if you know where to look. I take the bike out through some cracking Northumberland roads, explore what remains of the former **WW2 POW camp**, and tell the story of the people who once lived behind its fences. 🏍️ *Hidden History Rides* is all about discovering Britain's forgotten history from the seat of a motorcycle — abandoned places, wartime relics, old industrial sites, castles, ruins and those hidden pieces of history most people ride straight past. If you enjoy **British history, WW2 history, abandoned places, motorcycle adventures and exploring Northumberland**, please give the video a 👍, subscribe and join me for the next Hidden History Ride. *Every road tells a story.* #FeatherstonePOWCamp #FeatherstonePark #POWCamp #WW2History #WorldWarTwo #Northumberland #Haltwhistle #FeatherstoneCastle #HiddenHistory #HiddenHistoryRides #BritishHistory #AbandonedPlaces #MotorcycleAdventure #MotorcycleUK #HistoryUK
