@Infoseepage fantastic thread, thank you. Now really want to visit Warkworth some day!

@Infoseepage sounds an interesting read!

one of my most favourite history books is about the Scottish Borders - Steel Bonnets by George McDonald Fraser.

@Infoseepage I knew of the ba' field but had no idea it was still shown on the maps as being in Scotland. Excellent constitutional history that.

@Infoseepage what a story!

@Infoseepage wow, someone certainly knew how to make strong lime mortar!

@Infoseepage fantastic thread!! 🙏🏽

@Infoseepage someone has some 12th century stonework for a doorstop or hiding their keys under? Classy!

@Infoseepage those roof beams are incredible. Very keen to go and have a look now.

@Infoseepage that is a long drop privy!

@Infoseepage couldn't resist looking them up (bout of insomnia!).

Dr Henry Philp and Isabel Paterson - this preface to "the Grameid" tells their story and the circumstances of the memorial: https://www.calameo.com/read/000107044e619942b2fdb

@Infoseepage really enjoyed this thread, thank you!

In the old days these glens were used by tax dodging whisky smugglers.

Nowadays the tax avoidance is done by billionaire landowners. Nice gravel roads though.

A very sharp rock finally got me. First mechanical of the trip.

Park Tool tyre boot saved the day - did 20 rough miles all the way to the end of the day on this patch!

Day 5. Cambus o' May.

Can't believe there are still hindrances like this to access for all...

Day 1, coast to coast.

White wall, red roof. Can't think of anything more Scottish.

Scenes from today's bike path.

Sweet sweet dusty gravel.
