It’s not often that I travel up here but I always take the time to marvel at this wonder when I do.

I was playing with a brass quintet at a wedding just north of Alnwick today, so was hurtling up the A1 with my friends Karl and Della. Karl was driving, so I had a chance at taking this photo through his windscreen.

I thought this photo turned out OK, even despite the muck on the glass! It’s a shame we didn’t have time to stop and admire it. It’s such an iconic, beautiful structure.
