Low Newton by-the-Sea

As we leave Dunstanburgh Castle, the rocky shore eventually changes to sand; we have reached Embleton Bay. There is a golf course on our left as we walk along the beach; we turn off at the club house to walk a half mile uphill to the village of Embleton and the local shop. It is pretty here and we visit the Church of the Holy Trinity before heading back to the bay; en route we have a lovely, different view of the ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle - quite different to that from further along the bay.

We cross Embleton Mouth, where the burn enters the North Sea, and walk along the sand to Low Newton by-the-Sea. In the distance on top of a hill is the former Coastguard Station; it is now a National Trust holiday cottage. There are good views out to the sea from the beach.

Low Newton has a strong fishing heritage which is charterised by its picturesque three sided village square; the cottages were built in the 19th century for local fishermen. There is a nice looking pub here - The Ship Inn.Baca lagi
