Northumberland, Holy Island - Lindisfarne Castle Sunrise over Lindisfarne Castle on Holy Island off the Northumberland coast on a cold frosty morning in early March with an upturned keelboat in the foreground. Lindisfarne Castle has a long and varied history. The castle as we recognise it today dates originally from the 16th-century. Due to it's location in the North Sea and being situated close to the English Scottish border Lindisfarne was often attacked by Scots and Norsemen. The construction of a fort began in 1550 on top of Beblowe Crag using stone from the old Lindisfarne Priory. The original fort was further developed by the Tudors on Beblowe Crag between 1570 and 1572 , this further fortification laid the basis for the present castle. File 8377.
