The North Sea

Berwick-Upon-Tweed is as far north as you can get and still be in England. This place changed hands between the English and the Scots something like 13 times in a 400 year period before the border became stable after the two kingdoms united during the reign of King James in 1603.

 

This is the lighthouse at the end of the breakwater at the mouth of the River Tweed. The notoriously vicious North Sea was calm and placid on this day.
