Holy Island - MONOMAD CHALLENGE
North of Newcastle and Hadrians Wall on the Northumbrian Coast is the small Ancient Christian site of  Lindisfarn or Holy Island. Access is via a causeway and the island is a real island at high tide on average one car a month gets stranded trying to run the gauntlet off the island at the last minute. 

Moody views down the coast to Bamburgh Castle.

There has been a Christian settlement on the island since around 630AD and famously sacked by Vikings in 793AD.

The castle was built in 1550 using much of the stone from the old Priory which had fallen into disuse by that time.

It's a shame they don't restore those ruins. I know there's an argument for letting them crumble back into dust, but restoring them to their original appearance would allow the history to never be lost.

Archaeological digs going on and efforts to preserve them the way they are. Certainly not being lost
