Linton is a tiny village south of the River Lyne in Northumberland. It is found along a lane west of the A1068, the trunk road for the coastal villages, west of Ellington.

The wider parish of Linton includes North Linton Farm, north of the Lyne, and South Linton, north of the current village but south of the Lyne.
