| Walked from lay-by near lime kiln (turret 37a - near where the Pennine Way leaves the Wall) and passed over Sewingshields Crags on way to Chollerford as part of my Grand Tour of Northumberland. Very foggy all day and a fine mist blown on the wind made for difficult filming conditions. | NorthernWayfarer | 07/04/2019 |
