On the Road to Ruins - HFF!
The Priory on the Holy Island of Lindisfarne, Northumberland is the backdrop for what appears to be an old type of turnstile, forming part of my 'fence' image for this week.

The link is 'We Can Swing Together' by Lindisfarne

A lovely image. I love Lindisfarne and am going to Northumberland in June. My best memory is walking across the sands at the end of St Cuthbert's Way on a Good Friday. It was something special.

Thank you very much Jean. I am pleased you like it. It is a special place and though we went across really early it became very busy shortly afterwards so I imagine lots of people feel the same way. I hope you enjoy your holiday - I really liked Northumberland. Have a lovely weekend

Hi Carol

Very nice picture and excellent composition.

I like it very much. The purpose of the turnstile I do not understand. Let us walk between the posts!!

Best Wishes, HFF, and a Good Weekend

Thank you very much Peter. Really appreciated. I am pleased you like it.I wonder if it is a kind of test - maybe the righteous use the turnstile and the 'Yeah Rights' walk right on through! Lol! Belated HFF wishes. Have a good week.

A good capture.. way back in 1963... (honest) as scouts we camped on the mainland coast across from the 'Priory' and walked the tidal road many times to the Lindisfarne' beaches..

Quiet a unique shot for the HFF Carol, but me being me I am trying to workout the purpose of the turnstyle.
Sorry it's a very belated HFF but my time in front of a computer screen is limited for a while so I tend to leave out searching "Whats Hot".

I haven't figured that one out either Maurice! Many thanks. Best wishes Carol
