A corker of a day for the 4 ball, better ball at #DunstanburghCastle Golf Club. Scorched fairways, fast running balls & a respectable 40pts for us (although not close enough to win prizes). Certainly notice the different ‘access’ rights when playing in 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Mechanics Institute on Percy Street in Alnwick - https://alnwickcivicsociety.org.uk/2020/08/27/mechanics-institute/ - The building, as many are in the town, is an impressive build in sandstone though the sloping door columns are what really caught my eye.

The plaque by the door reads:  Mechanics Institute, Erected 1831 by public subscription for 'diffusing knowledge among artisans'

Could I have moved the green wheelie bin? yes, though that is how I found it & in my urbexing I like to leave nothing but footprints & take nothing but photos - so authenticity is the rule & I'd have had to wheel it back.

I just liked the weather worn red paint & the triple terraced stone steps leading to the Corn Exchange building itself.  There were many little alleys leading off a main street between buildings.

The little bushel insignia above the clock gives a clue to the building if the gold title at the foot of the façade didn't  give it away: Corn Exchange Lane.

Dunstanburgh Castle ruin framed by the rectangular hole in the south pier sea wall.

Apparently the structure was part of a rope apparatus for transporting stone from the quarry - now a car park - about 500m away.

Craster harbour looking north towards Dunstanburgh Castle - current population is 305 ( last census ) & a little memorial in the village near the slipway remembers the 21 local people who dies in WW1 & WW2 - a very significant number for such a sparsely populated region.

Caster is on the Castle Route - a road I like to drive - and passes through & along some fine sandy beaches & high dunes.  It's the North East so even in summer in unsheltered spots the wind can chill you, sheltered it can be epic & one of my favourite places.

Little jaunt up to #Northumberland yesterday #Alnwick & #Craster get my steps in & take some #streeptphotography images.

The two doorways are in Alnwick & I particularly liked the MI building & entrance.

In Craster I used the concrete gap in the sea wall to frame #DunstanburghCastle

COOL BLUE

Here is another image from my trip over to Dunstanburgh Castle in Northumberland at the weekend. This image was taken in the Blue Hour as soon as I got set up on the dicey beach in the dark about 7am.

EASTERN PROMISE

Sunrise at Dunstanburgh Castle on the Northumberland coast from the weekend. It was a bit dicey getting this shot with a fast incoming tide but well worth the effort.

A bit of an oldie from me, and image I've always wanted to try and shoot again. It was a sunset that lasted around 50 seconds, but it was definitely worth the 3 hour drive. What's the furthest you've driven for a non sunrise?

It’s wonderful- although my fave is Dunstanburgh Castle- I am biased because I have a cottage about 800 metres from it!
