Lol, I think it'll probably be dug out a bit on the inside!

Is that a boat tipped-over? Great photo as well.

Yes it's a boat, and they can be quite roomy I'm 6ft 2 half and fit in there with a bit of room above me it's a good idea for repurposing an old ish boat.

That's also in lindisfarne up in the north east.

Reminds me of the Shackleton expedition accomodation.

http://www.coolantarctica.com/Antarctic ... ition2.htm
The party left behind on Elephant Island used the two remaining life boats to make a hut, they were turned upside down and placed on top of two low stone walls, tent and sail fabric were used as lining to keep the wind and weather out. The men were even able to make small celluloid windows from an old photograph case, a blubber stove provided heat and was used as a cooker.

That's a great way to re-use an old boat, I'd like that. I also like the look of the big building on the hill in the background. That would make a great BOL.

Think that's Lindasfarne castle. The whole island would make a great BOL apart from at low tide it's accessible.

You're right about the castle.

Very nice place. I'd like to abseil off that.
