@RedFiveModels There was another cracker exposed at Dunstan Steads near Embleton, hadn’t been visible for a while.

Looks like the bags were filled with beach sand and maybe cement as they're rock solid now but the stones etc in it looks native to the beach itself. The step into it is still there and the firing port. The interesting tear drop shape is cool too. The were also
English
Did some concrete bothering today. Recent storms in Northumberland blasted away some of the sand dunes and this appeared underneath. It's the remains of a sandbag emplacement which has since turned to concrete. @almurray @James1940 @WeHaveWaysPod @ww2headquarters

@HackBlackburn I still haven’t seen the latest Bond because of this

Pre-parenthood, I used to treat the viewing of a film at home with the same sanctity I would a trip to the cinema - watched uninterrupted and in full
Now, if the film is longer than 2hrs 20mins, we will watch it across multiple evenings. Non-negotiable.

@FootballCliches Hopefully more Ravenelli than Woodgate then 👌🏻

Morpeth run out comfortable winners against Keswick to keep run of good form going trib.al/8RC7n3Y

You could just reach in and take a sip from that glass...

Eggs, fresh bread, a cool glass of wine, and a flower to rest your eyes on ~ I like the simplicity of 17th century German still-life specialist Georg Flegel’s ‘Snack with Fried Eggs’ (1630), State Gallery Aschaffenburg

@JHCPAL I then confuse tourists by recommending the beautiful village of Chillingham 😁

Guinevere's Guide to pronouncing Northumbrian place names like a local. Eglingham. Egg ling jum/ Egg lin jum. No ham. No eggs either. Means "the homestead at or called Ecgwulfing/the place called after Ecgwulf." Recorded as Ecgwulfincham 1040 which is a bit of a mouthful !

#Eglingham #Northumberland On this day 9th December 2001 a wander around St Maurice's Church, Eglingham, Northumberland. Grade II* Listed. Pevsner describes the church as ‘much restored but picturesque; a particularly complicated mix of medieval and post medieval builds’.

I mean, Troy Parrott, that Kenny McClean goal... how can you not love this game?!
English
Football, eh. Never disappoints. Unbelievable game! Fair play @ScotlandNT, what guts
English
Ice breaker activity. ‘Famous Leeds/West Yorks stuff’. Any other suggestions?

@FightingOnFilm @BriW74 Looks like Andy Serkis has been cast as Braddock
English
@BriW74 That would be very exciting if done well.

The first teaser for Young Washington, a film due to release 4 July, 2026, which chronicles the early years of George Washington. Decent cast, an ambitious premise. I wonder who advised on it.

Stained glass window, Newcastle Cathedral Detail view of the east window in St Nicholas Cathedral, Newcastle upon Tyne. This window was designed by William Wailes, who also designed windows in Gloucester and Chichester cathedrals.

I did College ⬇️ recently. I'll repost. Hethpool though. Recorded at Hetpol 1242. Heth is Middle English for height & also for heath (open uncultivated ground, a tract of wilderness etc). Here it could be either, both or something else entirely ! It's a mystery....

Visit the College Valley, home of stunning scenery and many amazing ruins of ancient hillforts. Enjoy this view from the top of Great Hetha looking back towards Hethpool. To plan your visit to the College Valley, visit our website.

@holland_tom John Wykeham Archer painted the chapel a couple of times in 1855, this one is a cracker

The beautifully secluded and atmospheric chapel of the Holy Trinity in Old Bewick.
It seems to have been founded by Matilda, the wife of Henry I, and daughter of Malcolm III of Scotland (as in ‘Macbeth’), in memory of her father, who’d been ambushed and slain outside Alnwick.

@northumbriana @NTlindisfarne @CherylOfficial Ah typical Dan, you visit the castle and I’m away grafting in Alnwick setting up the beer festival 😆🍺hope you enjoyed it 👍🏻

@JHCPAL An old merchant navy fella told me about them over a pint in the John Bull in Alnwick. He’d sailed past them many times and was amazed none of us in the pub had ever heard of them 👍🏻

@JHCPAL Check out the Northumberland Islands off Queensland, Australia. Named by Matthew Flinders for the 1st Duke (4th Duke’s granda), there’s some crackers - especially in the Duke Islands group. They certainly get around don’t they! 🌙
English
Wonders how Prudhoe came to find itself in Alaska. Googles. Falls over in astonishment.....named for Captain Algernon Percy, Baron Prudhoe. Later the 4th Duke.
As I say regularly, you are NEVER far from a Percy...though even I wasn't expecting to find one in Alaska.
