This is taken on Embleton Bay at the northern end of the big castle grounds showing its lone Lilburn tower (named after John de Lilburn, who became constable in 1322.) Of course we see the rather nice Dunstanburgh cliffs too which is known for its sea-bird colonies of razorbills and guillemots. The great artist William Turner painted this tower: www.tate.org.uk/art/artworks/turner-dunstanburgh-castle-the-lilburn-tower-with-the-sea-beyond-d00954 Essential full screen
