Monday 28th - Coldingham Priory & St.Abbs + Crab boat video

Another beautiful morning and we were off to Yarrow Feus, but we decided to visit Coldingham  Priory and St. Abbs first.

Here is the video of the crab boat setting off back out to sea. See how clear the water is!

Northfield House
This house was built in the 1880s by a brewer from Edinburgh by the name of Usher. At one time he owned the whole of St. Abbs head, the church, the Hall and the harbour. Now it is owned by a banker and farmer named Nisbet.
