Lindisfarne Castle
Lindisfarne Castle is a compact 16th-century fortification sited on the rocky high point of Holy Island, Northumberland, later adapted as a country house by Sir Edwin Lutyens in the early 20th century. The building and its walled garden are now cared for by the National Trust and are open to visitors.

As it stood in 1910
The shape it held in its prime.
Perched on the steep rocky crag known as Beblowe, the castle is a compact stone fortress with a short curtain wall and a rounded gun battery set at the high point. The main two-storey rectangular house nestles against the inner wall, with steep slate roofs, tall brick chimneys and simple rectangular windows. Walls are pale sandstone with weathered faces; a flagstaff rises from the battery. The site sits isolated on grass-covered rock reached by a cobbled climb around the base.
