Ever wondered why Beadnell Church is so far from the harbour? Or how the Craster Arms, Dell Point and the Benty got their names? Or asked yourself how Beadnell village came to be where it is in the first place? In Limkkilns and Lobsterpots, local author Katrina Porteous guides us on a walk of between two and three miles, which is also a journey back through more than a thousand years of Beadnell's history. Taking in fishermen and fisherlasses, farm labourers and 'bondagers', saints, priests, a princess, quarries, coalmines, smugglers and shipwrecks, Limekilns and Lobsterpots brings alive the often-surprising past of this beautiful village.
