Waren Mill
(about 3 miles up the coast from Bamburgh)

This is actually where we stayed, the bridge above, was literally built into the boundary wall of the Mill
There's no BM on the building, but a plaque on the electricity sub-station that's at the roadside

We had the 2nd floor of the glass insert & the 'loft'
489633

Waren Burn, our 'own' waterfall

Seen here, from the shore of Budle Bay

From the 'loft'
Lindisfarne Castle (Holy Island) could be seen in the distance, circa 4 miles?

On the way up.

Elvet Bridge
Durham

The 'Great North Road' used to enter the city over this bridge, & evidence of the widening can be seen under the bridge
As it can at Wakefield Bridge (better known as 'Chantry Bridge') , & also at Wetherby
