Anick (/ˈeɪnɪk/ ⓘ AY-nik)[1] is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Sandhoe, in Northumberland, England, situated to the north of Hexham. In 1881 the parish had a population of 153.[2]
Anick should not be confused with the much larger town of Alnwick (pronounced /ˈænɪk/), which is also in Northumberland, but some 35 miles (56 km) further north.
Governance
[edit]Anick was formerly a township in St. John Lee parish.[3] From 1866 Anick was a civil parish in its own right[4] until it was abolished on 24 March 1887 and merged with Sandhoe.[5]
