Love the castle ruins - windows and corridors traced against the sky. Not a cloud to be seen.
Down on the road below there are banners for the Yves Saint Laurent exhibition at the Bowes Museum and the very last flowers of the summer....

The town still has a bit of a fortress feel, built up on the hill behind the castle. You can almost always see the moors beyond.
