Landmark
Lindisfarne Priory
Red-sandstone ruins of the medieval priory on Holy Island, the cradle of early English Christianity and home of the Lindisfarne Gospels story. Kids can make a runic name stone and follow an animal trail; the island is reached by a tidal causeway that floods twice a day, so the visit has to be planned around safe crossing times.
