    Thought this was very interesting recent find, I wouldn’t have had a clue what it was. The black one is an earlier find.

    I went to Lindisfarne in 2017 when working and also all those places on the map, Wooler, Coldstream etc.

    It is a very rarely visited part of England yet is steeped in history.

    Its the least populated area and the coastline is totally unspoilt.

    It has 70 castles, the most in England, dating back to the 12th century.

    It is known as the "Secret Kingdom".

    The Lindisfarne Gospels (8th C) are well-enough known.
