繰り返し見られる神聖な小さな記念碑は、外観のデザインには様々な違いがあるものの、共通の目的を持っています。ここにそびえ立つ十字架は、見る人の目を引くだけでなく、何よりもまず神のことを考えさせようとしています。神学書だけでなく、世俗的な文学においても、神の声はしばしば表現されており、それは犯罪小説においても好んで繰り返されています。例えば、エリス・ピーターズは、12世紀のイングランドを舞台にしたベネディクト会修道士「ブラザー・カドフェル」をめぐる一連の小説を、修道院の周辺に設定しました。「氷の中の乙女」には、「それでも、人生、信仰への固執、運命との粘り強い闘いは続けられなければならず、土地は毎年耕されなければなりませんでした。鋤と犂は休むことなく、土地の果実の種まきと収穫は、ここ修道院や教会での魂の種まきと収穫と同じように大切にされなければなりませんでした。」とあります。十字架の前に立つ人が、自分の魂のために良い考えを持つことを願っています。

The vast majority of small sacred monuments encountered by cyclists have a very long history, often dating back centuries. This is completely different with the object found here. Even though the cross on top of the shaft draws on the ancient tradition and formal language of a "Celtic cross," it is very modern. It was erected to mark the turn of the millennium, which is why it is also called the "Millennium Cross." Therefore, here is a very short passage from the prayer for the Stations of the Cross with the Holy Father, Pope John Paul II, on Good Friday of the Jubilee Year 2000: + "To you, crucified Lord Jesus Christ, the power and wisdom of God, be honor and praise forever and ever. Amen."

It's really cool that you go past the old lighthouse en route to the new one!

Lovely quiet roads

The old lighthouse, Flamborough, although never used, is in good condition and represents a unique survival of a 17th century monument lighthouse in England in an unaltered state. There is good historical data on its conception and construction, giving insights into the maritime economy of the period. The lighthouse was completed in 1674 by Sir John Clayton and George Blake and was made with brilliant white chalk. The duo were granted patents from Charles II to build 3 other lighthouses along the East coast including one on the Farne Islands, however, there is no evidence on the Farnes to suggest that a lighthouse was built at this time. A beacon may have been placed on Prior Castell's Tower in lieu of an actual lighthouse. it is believed that a fire may have burned in a metal basket hung from the top of the building, though there is no evidence that there was ever a fire lit. It worked as a daymark too and can be seen all along the coastline at Flamborough Head and by ships passing on the North Sea. Ships that passed in the 17th century were required to pay a tax to the architects of the lighthouse to pay for the light, however the tax was voluntary so not surprisingly many mariners refused to pay and this led to John Clayton becoming bankrupt and the end of the lighthouse. The lighthouse was given another life in the 1840s and was used by local man George Mainprize to transmit semaphore messages to passing vessels and possibly to the fort at nearby Bridlington. Now it is a grade II listed building and it opens to the public on various days during the summer months. There is usually no access inside the tower, and there is a friendly warning about flying golf balls if you dare to trespass on the Flamborough Head Golf Course.
