| All three photos above show Lindisfarne Island also known as Holy Island. The Island is cut off by the tides and is only accessible via a causeway that is cut off twice in every 24 hours. The castle in the photos is Lindisfarne Castle owned by the National Trust, it was built in the 1550's. In the photo on the right you can see old fishing boats that have been recycled for use as work sheds. | ||
