Boulmer

The village of Boulmer, pronounced 'Boomer,' is on the Northumbrian coast, just east of the town of Alnwick  The first view shows the sweep of the beach.  The set of photo's in this series have all been taken by Mooncat755.

The unusually named 'Herring Sheds Cottage.' 

 Boulmer is home to R.A.F. Boulmer, one of the North East's main search and rescue bases. The R.A.F. opened a base here during World War Two. 
An almost deserted, but not quite, beach.

Although there is no harbour, boats are hauled up onto the land above the beach. Fishing still takes place from Boulmer, the main catch consisting of crab, lobster and sea salmon.
