| St Cuthbert's Church (Norham) | Ancient Cross | England | Northumberland | Visited | 6th Sep 2018 | 3 | 5 | 5 | Anglo Saxon Pillar, Norham: The journey seemed to take a lot longer than anticipated, and we didn’t arrive here until almost 3pm. At first, keeping the tower of the church in view, we went the wrong way, past the village cross and the first school, then turned round, travelling back along West St... Read More |

| Monk's Well (Upsettlington) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Scotland | Scottish Borders | Visited | 6th Sep 2018 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Monk's Well, Upsetllington: From St Cuthbert's Church in Norham with its Saxon pillar, we went to Norham Castle (well worth looking round, and free of charge). This was the start of quite a treat - three holy wells in two adjacent fields!
From the castle, we crossed the bridge over the River T... Read More |

| St Mary's Well (Upsettlington) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Scotland | Scottish Borders | Visited | 6th Sep 2018 | 3 | 3 | 4 | St Mary's Well, Upsettlington: From Monk’s Well, and in the same field, we walked east-north-east towards this fenced off area of the field.

| Nun's Well (Upsettlington) | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Scotland | Scottish Borders | Visited | 6th Sep 2018 | 3 | 4 | 4 | Nun's Well, Upsettlington: From St. Mary's Well, walking up the hill to the gate which leasds into the next field, we walked back down hill towards a steam. The well monument can be seen between two large trees, just before a small burn leading westwards into the RiverTweed. The trees on the wester... Read More |

| Norham Cross | Ancient Cross | England | Northumberland | Visited | 6th Sep 2018 | 3 | 4 | 5 | Norham Village Cross: (Before looking at this cross, we stopped off to look at the Victorian Jubilee Fountain just over the border in Scotland, which still has its original pump handle, although this doesn't work). We passed this cross several times today, but with it being immediately next to the c... Read More |

| Twizel Standing Stone | Standing Stone (Menhir) | England | Northumberland | Visited | 6th Sep 2018 | -1 | 3 | 4 | Site of possible standing stone, Twizel: The boulder no longer appears to be in the field, although there is a small raised area in the field – as this is England, we couldn’t find anyone to ask permission to walk into the field, so photographed it from the fence near the cottage. For a last st... Read More |
