Holy Island and the causeway

First day staying in the College Valley we decided, as the weather didnt look so good to head out to Holy Island. Unfortuantely when we arrived at 9.30 am the causeway was closed with the tide. The timetables said that we could not cross until 11.30 am so with time to kill we started to explore along the shoreline at Beal Point and try to work along to Goswick Sands.What we hadnt expected to see, as the attached photo shows is that there are world war II bunkers here. A small reminder that the past is never very far away.

We have quite a few cottages close by to Holy Island such as
Bede Cottage
Cuthbert Cottage
and
The Hayloft
