Used to cycle to St Mary's Island from Sunderland many years back, making good use of the pedestrian/cycle tunnels at Howden.
Probably would have been quicker (and shorter) using the Shields Ferry, but for some reason, it never occurred back then.
Just north of Whitley Bay, this small tidal island was variously called 'Bates Island', 'Hartley Bates' or even 'Bates Hill'.
This was because it had been once owned by the Bates family who were quite prominent locally.
However, it seems that in the 19th century, there used to be an inn on the island and in 1895, after numerous complaints about rowdy behaviour by those frequenting the inn, the landlord, evicted the tenant from the island, putting an end to such nusiance!

10 At The End â August 2026
Gratitude, Happenings, Observations âŚÂ
-
After a crazy June and busy July, August brought slower days and sweet joys, including celebrating my pregnant daughter at her baby shower.
-
Sunsets on the water.
-
A wonderful, relaxing getaway with my beloved friend. Spending time together was a treasure, especially since we now live in different states. Iâm thankful for friendship.
-
Pesticide-free, fresh cucumbers from my lovely neighborâs garden.
-
Desserts turned out adorable and delicious for my daughterâs baby shower.
-
My 29-yr old daughter came into town to celebrate her sister. What fun to have both of my girls together for several days!
-
August reads â stay tunedâŚmore details on these later this week.
https://msefton.com/blog/8. A walk through Sarah P. Duke Gardens at Duke University â more photos on Wednesday.
-
August heat in Texas is comparable to January cold in New York. I was mostly stuck indoors.
-
But thankfully, there were pleasant beach walks in coastal Carolina during our quick girls-getawayâŚ
Tomorrow we welcome the start of the âberâ months. September, October, November and December are always special. Each brings at least one holiday and for much of America, a coziness that accompanies beautiful seasonal changes. I hope you enjoy each one of themđ.
Thank you for reading and have a blessed Monday!

As we head into the final weekend of August with many families preparing for youngsters heading 'back-to-school', I think this year's summer break will live long in the memory.
In short, it's been a belter!
Captured this view of Cliffe Park, on Sunderland's coast in NE England at the beginning of the week, looking north towards Whitburn Bay and Souter Point beyond.
For anyone not local, the lighthouse in this picture was built in 1856 by Thomas Meik, the River Wear Commissioners' Engineer, and originally was located on the Old South Pier at the mouth of the River Wear.
It became redundant in later years and was relocated to its present position as a reminder of the city's maritime heritage, not to mention becoming an iconic seafront landmark.

A pair of willie wagtails appeared out front this afternoon. They don't stay still for long so it's always fun to get a shot of them.
