The Holy Island of Lindisfarne【4K】| Northumberland Island Walk 2021

Join me for something a little bit different, as we take a walk on the windswept Holy Island of Lindisfarne, located in Northumberland, roughly a mile off the coast of the British mainland. Accessible only at certain times of day due to the tides, this is one of the holiest places in Britain, and the place from where Christianity first spread in northern England almost 1,400 years ago.

On our walk around The Holy Island, we pass a number of interesting landmarks, including The Heugh, Heugh Hill Lighthouse, Lindisfarne War Memorial, The Lookout, the ruins of Lindisfarne Priory, St. Cuthbert's Island, the Old Lifeboat House, the Parish Church of St. Mary the Virgin, Market Place, Lindisfarne Village Cross, St. Cuthbert's United Reformed Church, St. Aidan's Winery - the home of Lindisfarne Mead, The Manor House Hotel, The Crown & Anchor Inn, The White House, Marygate, Chare Ends, The Ship Inn (formerly The Northumberland Arms), Lindisfarne Coastguard Station, Lindisfarne Beach, Lindisfarne Harbour, and Lindisfarne Castle.
