This photo, added by Jim Milner to the Your Place Northumberland Flickr group, was taken at Winter's Gibbet near Elsdon.

Jim says "Northumberland is a fantastic county and the lichen on the footpath sign sums up great walking in fabulous landscapes breathing clean air... lichens dont grow like this unless the air is clean".
