It will also cover other places across the North East of England when I'm on my travels.

After visiting the Hendon Grange this morning I wandered down to the nearby Hendon Beach in Sunderland.
A wild morning, I highlight the story of one ship that tragically was wrecked nearby in 1901.

At lunchtime today I took advantage of the opportunity to visit St Marks Church in Millfield, Sunderland.
There was an open event to show its new use as a place not for profit organisations can rent space there. Didn't do a video, just took photos.
This 1870s constructed Church has some beautiful stained glass and some war memorials.
