Summit area of Blakeman's Law Blakeman's Law lies close to the Northumberland village of Otterburn and to the MOD's Otterburn Range. The summit area has a number of features of interest: a trig point, a flagpole from which a red flag is flown to warn of army activity on the range and an odd 'mini-trig' which is presumably some sort of boundary marker.
