Choppington is a village in Northumberland. It is to be found a short distance to the south-east of Morpeth, and north of Bedlington.

Choppington was at one time part of the three big mid-Northumberland collieries (Ashington, Bomarsund and Choppington), and the older generation in the village will tell you that they worked at 'A', 'B' or 'C'.
