Just completed this view of Lindisfarne Castle on Holy Island, Northumberland. The 16th century castle was built to protect against possible Scottish invasion and served as a military garrison for over 300 years until in 1901 it was bought and refurbished by Edward Hudson, the owner of Country Life magazine. It is now in the possession of the National Trust. Watercolours, pens, white gouache on 16 x 12 ins paper.
