St Mary The Virgin (Ponteland) | Ancient Cross | England | Northumberland | Visited | 9th Oct 2018 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 10th century grave marker, Ponteland: As this stone was one of only a few listed on the Corpus in Northumberland that we had still to see, we had previously visited on 20th September 2018, but were unable to get into the tower. Today, I’d arranged to meet church warden David Butler, plus another ... Read More |

St Aidan's Church (Bamburgh) | Early Christian Sculptured Stone | England | Northumberland | Visited | 9th Oct 2018 | 3 | 4 | 5 | St Aidan's Church, Bamburgh: We hadn’t intended to visit this church, but having seen two wells located in the property immediately to its east, we decided to take a look before heading off to the castle. The church is open during daylight hours, and is very welcoming, with lights in the nave, ch... Read More |

St Aidan's Well (Bamburgh) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Northumberland | Visited | 9th Oct 2018 | 3 | 3 | 5 | St Aidan's Well, Bamburgh: This well seemed to form a ‘hub’ for visitors, with a school party and tourists sitting on the benches and grass around this structure, so we needed to make two trips to this well.

Bamburgh Castle | Sculptured Stone | England | Northumberland | Visited | 9th Oct 2018 | 3 | 4 | 3 | Wells and Anglo Saxon Stones at Bamburgh Castle: Note: there is disabled parking next to the State Rooms, but there are many stairs in and around the castle. It’s been a long time since we last came here, and the visit today happened because I’d been sent a 1947 Antiquarian paper about the holy... Read More |

Leper's Well (Bamburgh) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | England | Northumberland | Visited | 9th Oct 2018 | -1 | 3 | 4 | Leper's Well, Bamburgh: Guided by the grid reference given on Pastscape, we walked down Doctor's Lane from St Aidan's Well. Some of the old stone walls around properties, and at the sides of the lanes running off here are ancient, and we thought they could well belong to the old leper hospital.

Bamburgh Barrow 1 | Round Barrow(s) | England | Northumberland | Saw from a distance | 9th Oct 2018 | 1 | 3 | Rubbing Stone & Tumulus, Bamburgh: Spotted this apparent 'standing stone' in the field when we were walking back along Doctor's Lane towards St Aidan's Well. There was no obvious way into the field along this route, and we'd already walked for miles, so we contented ourselves with photographing fro... Read More |
