Berwick upon Tweed

Today we visited Berwick, England's most Northerly town, so far north in fact that the local football team, Berwick Rangers play in the Scottish League!

Dunstanburgh

We parked the car at Craster, had a look at the Harbour and then walked along the coastal path to Dunstanburgh Castle. It was a gorgeous evening after a bit of a rainy day. The only down side for some of our party were the insects that were out in force.
