okay hi so we woke up here in a van yesterday morning. this is heysham overlooking morecambe bay. it's the 8th century chapel of st patrick with its rock cut tombs. This complex kinda tumbles the later churchyard next door where a saxon arch was re-erected. this place is phenomenal & absolutely threw me about. it's both alien & familiar

after this we drove to sunderland point. this is a village only accessible by one tidal road which cuts it off twice a day. it's a marshy prison. here there is a work by artist chris drury, a camera obscura housed in this dry stone chamber. it's a phenomenal vibe. you go inside and it's pitch black. slowly slowly the image of the bay behind appears in a circle. every now and then a bird will dart across and it feels filmic. the structure is beautifully built. It feels like a burial

a domed dry stone structure with a camera obscura in the middle. it's made of grey, red and brown stones tightly and beautifully dressed and packed
