 Holy
Island, Lindisfarne
|
|
| Holy
Island, this island was populated by missionaries in the
7th century after coming from Iona led by St Aiden.
The Danish ransacked the monastery 150 years later and in
1802 the Benedictine monks built the priory, which is now
in ruins. The monks made mead, which is still made now.
