Falstone is a small village and civil parish in Northumberland, England, just east of Kielder Water.
[2] Falstone holds a popular annual agricultural show.
This derives from the Old English words fealu 'yellow, grey, mottled' and stān 'stone; thus it originally meant something like 'speckled stone'.
[3][4] The district of Falstone also once contained a place called Powtreuet, first attested in 1325 as Poltrerneth, whose name comes from the Brittonic language.
The line was closed to passengers by British Railways in 1956.
