Ellerton - Northumberland & Northeast

Ellerton is a freshwater quarry, a popular spot for local divers getting their skills dialled in. You'll find a few submerged training platforms and often some small perch or carp cruising through the murk. Visibility can be a mixed bag, particularly after a few groups have been through, but it’s an accessible site for training or gear testing. It suits divers looking for convenient inland practice rather than a scenic dive.
