If you walk to this small island when the tide is low you will see St Cuthbert's Cross. It is also a good place to see some seals in the sea or on the sand banks.

This cross on "Holy Island" is dedicated to a prominent English saint: Saint CUTHBERT of Lindisfarne. He lived in the seventh century (634 to 687) and, according to traditional biographies, was a shepherd or soldier before he followed God's calling and became a monk. He lived in various monasteries until 676, but then withdrew to the island of Farne as a hermit. Even at this time, the so-called "reputation of holiness" around him spread, and more and more people from all over Britain sought him out. Eventually he became bishop and abbot of the monastery in Lindisfarne for a short time, but withdrew to his island again, where he died shortly afterwards. The memorial day of Saint Cuthbert in the calendar of saints is March 20th.
