Lilburn Tower, Dunstanburgh Castle.

Near the north end of the west wall, rising above the western end of the cliff, is the Lilburn Tower, named after John de Lilburn, who became constable in 1322. This was probably the residence of an important official: it was provided with fine windows and window seats.

 

The classic shot taken from the northern side of Dunstanburgh Castle, from the 'death stones'. Due to the very bright conditions, the long exposure effect required blending several 'long exposure' images.
