  2. Newcastle – Scotland trains to be affected on six days as £7m project gets underway dlvr.it/TV46LT #Alnmouth #Ashington #BerwickuponTweed #Chathill

  3. Went to the Seaside today for the 1st time for ages, we thought it might be a bit cooler. It was actually cold, with a chill easterly blowing in off the not-yet-warmed-up North Sea and with the haar heading our way we beat a hasty retreat to Amble, 6 miles away where it was warm. A double scoop of Spurreli's strawberry ice cream and home. The image was just trying out an old kit lens. #Seascape #Sea #Beach #Landscape #Photography #Alnmouth #Northumberland #Coast

  4. The gorgeous Northumbrian coastal village of Alnmouth, as viewed from the wooden cross on Church Hill.
    For anyone visiting Alnmouth, the distinctive hill and cross are difficult to miss, what is slightly more problematic though, is attempting to reach it.
    Up until the early 19th century, it was just a short walk from the south end of the village.
    Unfortunately, a storm broke through the low-lying land hereabouts and created a short-cut for the River Aln to the North Sea, cutting off Church Hill.
    As my photograph illustrates, I did eventually get the opportunity to reach the hill where I later learned that, according to Bede's account in 'Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum', Archbishop Theodore presided over a synod in 684 here in the presence of King Ecgfrith of Northumbria and whereupon St Cuthbert was elected Bishop of Lindisfarne.

  5. Sitting on #Alnmouth beach and using map.signalbox.io/ so I can tell the kids when to look up and watch a train going past.

  6. Looking across to picturesque Alnmouth from Church Hill on the coast of Northumberland in North East England.
    Church Hill is located on the south side of the River Aln and is surmounted by a wooden cross.
    It was once part of Alnmouth itself and the parish church stood on the west side of the hill.
    That all changed however, during a violent storm back in 1806.
    The North Sea broke through and the course of the River Aln found a new and shorter route to the sea with the hill effectively becoming cut off from the village.
    I did once attempt to cross the River Aln to Church Hill at low tide (I'd heard it could be done!).
    However, finding the mud in the river becoming worryingly deeper and not entirely sure of the veracity of accounts of a safe crossing, I gave up.
    I eventually reached the hill from a much longer route from the south.

  7. Views over the River Aln estuary as it sweeps out to sea. A lovely place to be when the sun shines. These photos were taken in 2021, I've not seen the sun again since 😜

  8. Wide Mouthed Alnmouth

    Panoramic shot taken some time ago on my old iPhone 5s back when the sun actually shone long enough to do a sweeping panorama.

  9. As late as the 1960's, this unassuming hut in Alnmouth, Northumberland, was where the ferrymen sheltered when they weren't rowing people across the River Aln.
    This days, it's filled with old photographs and other items of local memorabilia.
    Entry is free and Alnmouth Parish Council think it has to be smallest museum in the country!
