Kyloe is a village an parish in Northumberland, about eight miles south-east of Berwick-on-Tweed.

The former church in Kyloe was built in the eighteenth century, replacing a mediæval building, and is now a private house.

At East Kyloe, the ruins of a late 14th or early 15th century mediæval tower house known as Kyloe Tower now form part of a complex of farm buildings.[1]

The nearby woodland area is a famous area for rock climbing and bouldering. Known locally as 'Kyloe-In-The-Woods' or simply 'The Woods', the crags are home to some of the toughest climbs in the United Kingdom.
