Main Page | See live article | Alphabetical index Bamburgh is a small town on the coast of Northumberland, England. It is famous for two things: its imposing castle, at present owned by the Armstrong family (see William George Armstrong); and its association with the Victorian heroine, Grace Darling. For these reasons, and for its extensive sandy beach, Bamburgh is popular with holidaymakers. This photograph looks East from the village green towards the castle on its crag. The sea is about 100m behind the castle. This article is from Wikipedia. All text is available under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License.
