  • Castles in the Sand

    Rising from the dunes,
    Defence from a bygone age,
    But still standing strong.

    Like Wales, the northeast coast of England is awash with old castles. Some are total ruins, but some are still actually lived in. One is Bamburgh Castle, sat atop sand dunes and looking out over the North Sea to the Farne Islands.
