I noticed that the relatively modern house set back in gardens on Bridge Street is called Emberside House.
How does this sound, back in the day, as written by Hodgson (on the sister site), tenants in Warkworth had strips of land at a place called Endemyre, called Endmyre by the 1580s. This has gradually become corrupted to Ember and so is probably on what is now the Butts. The strip of land theory is strengthened by the house being called "Rig" and Embermyre.
