View across Alnwick Moor in mono

My grandmother died last year aged 89 and for many years would walk the two miles or so out of Alnwick to sit in this seat, contemplate, eat seaside sandwiches and drink cups of tea from a flask. She did this up until about a year before her death when alzheimers took its toll.

I visited this morning and just contemplated as my gran did, took a couple of photographs and walked away completely relaxed. I can recommend this to each and every one of you.
