Wild Cattle - Chillingham

The Pennines



Our journey starts from the car park at Cattle Grid





The Cheviot Hills are in the background







We noticed the very rare cattle behind the trees




The Hedgehope and Cheviot Hills



Chillingham's wild cattle


I climbed down there to take some close look at them


All white with black feet, end of tail, 
nose and the inside of the ears




He must be their leader as he was very alert when 
I was stepping on the icy pasturing ground













Climbing back to the footpath



Mind! It is a wild cattle






Robin Hood's Bog



Brown Santa




We are definitely going towards the light!


Chillingham's tiny village



St Peter's Church from XII century



He tried to be cheeky with me but he got it at the end, 
he wanted to take a photo about me 
when I was standing before the bull...



So he got the photo with himself!




One of the entrance to the property of the Castle





The horrific Chillingham Castle





From the XII century






Another entrance to the property




And another one ... plus few more ...







End of trip, we are approaching to our starting point,
The sheeps are enjoying the beautiful sunshine. 
The spring is coming!
