History


The name "Callerton" means 'Calves' hill, the "Black" part distinguishes it from High and Little Callerton.[2] Black Callerton is possibly a shrunken medieval village, although there is no indications on the ground.[3] The earliest reference to the settlement dates from 1246.[4] Black Callerton was formerly a township in the parish of Newburn,[5] from 1866 Black Callerton was a civil parish in its own right until it was abolished and merged with Woolsington on 1 April 1955.[6] In 1974 it became part of Tyne and Wear, having previously been part of Northumberland.
