Tonight we watched a show about Ebb's Nook in Northumberland, where people had kept alive for 1300 years the name of St AEbba, who had a chapel there.

We were intrigued by the shape of the Claster Arms nearby which reminded us of a kind of home called a saltbox in New England.

The second show, set in York, led us to research clunch. We were amazed at the fine detail on stone carvings on York Minster.
