Delmeny and the Forth Bridges

	Take the train from Edinburgh to Delmeny and then walk into Queensferry. You get a great view of both the Forth rail and road bridges. This is the Forth Road Bridge.

Day 1: The Cheviots

	The Cheviots are a range of hills named after the highest peak, Cheviot. We stayed on the coast, in Alnmouth, about 15 miles away. We went with HF Holidays who organise walking holidays like this one.
	More scenery.
	The top of Yeavering Bell. It was so windy here I could barely stand up to take the photo. Everyone else is sheltering downwind of the cairn.
	Looking back at Yeavering Bell.
	An interesting circular enclosure.

Day 2: The coast

	Starting at High Newton we walk along the beach, heading North. The town in the distance is Beadnell. The fortress-like structure is the Lime Kilns.
	Beadnell harbour.
	Looking back along the beach.
	Beadnell harbour.
	Looking back from Beadnell harbour, the building in the distance might be Dunstanburgh Castle, but I'm guessing.

	Approaching Seahouses. You can see Bamburgh Castle in the distance.
	Farne Islands from Seahouses.
	Bamburgh Castle from the centre of Seahouses.
	I think this little building on an outcrop near Seahouses was called the Powder House, It's very hard to find any information about it, it doesn't appear to get a mention on any Seahouses site. This is the best link I found.
