Special and Spectacular - Lindisfarne Priory - September Scavenging

The Holy Island of Lindisfarne is a tidal island off the northeast coast of England.
Holy Island has a recorded history from the 6th century.
It was an important centre of Celtic Christianity under Saints Aidan of Lindisfarne,
Cuthbert, Eadfrith of Lindisfarne and Eadberht of Lindisfarne.
After Viking invasions and the Norman conquest of England a priory was reestablished.
A small castle was built upon it in 1550.
