One Down, Two to Go

Bamburgh to Embleton - 22 January 2022 One down, two to go. It's the start of our coastal walks for 2022, we do not usually do that many in any one year and this year is no exception. After this one, we have a second one in July when we go from Coldingham to Dunbar in the Scottish Borders and…

At least the intention was to start at Blanchland the first time we went there but we didn't quite make it there that time. The other…

We Are Off to Somewhere Salubrious

Powburn to Glanton - 6 November 2021 In 1895, David Dippie Dixon, in his book called Whittingham Vale wrote that Glanton is a salubrious little village and has a commanding position with a magnificent panoramic view of many miles. So given that recommendation from David we are off to somewhere salubrious this Saturday. Mind you, if David had been there…
