Bamburgh Castle, on the northeast coast of England, by the village of Bamburgh in Northumberland, is a Grade I listed building. The site was originally the location of a Celtic Brittonic fort known as Din Guarie and may have been the capital of the kingdom of Bernicia from its foundation c. 420 to 547.

The castle sits atop an intrusive crag, which forms part of the Stirling Sill geological formation. It is surrounded on three sides by steep cliffs, giving it a strong defensive position.

Great flight Ian. Fantastic footage 👌👍🏻
Beautiful bay. Lovely flight 👌 Great timing with the train. Rowing the boat was a treat to catch. Fabulous 👍🏻
Such a shame!
When there is a hole in the clouds and the sun shines through like a huge spotlight, it is absolutely stunning. I know. I open my front door it is staring me in the face. Sometimes when the mist is in the glen, the castle looks like it is floating, more so at night when it is lit up.
Beautiful footage Ian very nice edit 👏👏🎥👍
Spot the Lard Arse. Correct there were none.
Dont breathe that dust
As a lifelong kirkcaldy resident its so sad that kirkcaldys last cinema will soon be gone.
Great footage hopefully you can get some more footage as they go on pesky seagulls
Great footage. Nicely captured and flown 👍👌
I filmed here a couple months back meaning to keep checking for the start of the demolition , looks like I missed it , still might be worth a visit when the machines are at work , I see the Seagulls are still as feisty as when I was there, I had to escape straight upwards a few times 🤣
That was beautiful, thank you so much for posting it. I wish I was there
Fantastic footage and flight Ian 👏🎥👍
Nice footage again Ian 👍🏻
Thanks, Brian, a bit of sunshine always helps.
Beautifully captured 👌 lovely flight
Thank you :-)
Me and the wife's favourite place, nice footage of the castle, nice coffee and scones in the Copper Kettle 👍
Thanks, I always enjoy a visit to Bamburgh. I'll bear in the mind the scones for next time.
The view and video are superb.
Moved out of Kirkcaldy a while ago. It is nothing but kids having kids creating crime and mayhem. The whole esplanade redevelopment was a disaster for traffic and has completely congested the area. It is also compounded by the fact they keep expanding Kirkcaldy with expensive new builds that locals can't afford and outsiders are not interested in because the're too far away from more prosperous regions to commute. You just need to look at the Scottish Deparivity Index to see how badly Kirkcaldy has fallen.
Thanks Ian a lovely video.
Thanks for commenting, Brian, I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
That's a Bonny view Ian well done great capture of the Castle loved it all
Thanks, much appreciated! 🙂
what a sad state of the toon now even the cinemas gone
Fantastic footage, what drone do you use? I've flown here a few times, just watch out for a particularly aggressive pair of Oystercatchers!
What is the depth of these canals? is there a lot of tourism on these canals?
Kirkcaldy prom, always was and still is shockingly under utilised. I didn't know the Victoria Hotel used to be named differently.
It has always been called the Victoria hotel.The Windsor is still and the Ollerton hotel was along from the Windsor.Its not there now as it was made into flats I think or a house 🤔
Muchas gracias por compartir, es un excelente video, muchas felicidades. ✨️👌🏽
Millions and millions of pounds spent on that fkn joke of a prom which floods whenever we have a wee shower yet a majestic building gets left to fall to pieces. Priorities wrong somewhere ! Braw video by the way, I shall subscribe
I agree agree with you entirely and I've yet to hear from anyone who considers the prom to be an improvement. Cheers for the sub 👍
brilliant flight Ian thanks for sharing
Great vid. Me and ma gf spent hours trying to figure out where tf we were!! Lol. Few questions. Kinda drone u using that gets you all that and still keep VLOS? (I'm using air 2s) do you edit after and what do you use coz it looks great. Was that filmed in 4k or 5 and edited down?
Cheers. Did you figure out that it was between Windygates and Leven, in Fife?! I shot this with a Mini3 Pro, flying from a car park near the small roundabout at the start of the video. Max distance out was only around 500m and I had clear sight lines in both directions. Although I did have VLOS the Mini3 Pro is a bit tricky to spot in the sky when the distance increases due to its small size. I edit the footage in Premier Pro in 4K.
Ah, i saw this from a distance last weekend when out sailing and thought it may be in the water, but from my viewpoint, could have been on the land nice flight buddy 👏🎥👍
Thanks, Jim. Although accessible from the shore, the turbine does actually sit in the water, though obviously it is very shallow there.
Great flight with a nice capture of these beautiful hills. Amazing. Liked & subscribed. Keep it up! 👍
Beautiful video. Thanks for sharing. 👍6
Lovely flight Ian 👏👍
perfect m8
Very very beautifull cinematography righ there. Cliffs look amazing. And lighthouses. What drone are you flying?
❤👌👌👍👍great video 💚💚
Absolutely top class Ian you will get me all day long with coastal shots like that mate that's what I love to see ❤️👏👏👏😎🎥👍
I've not lived in Burntisland for many years noo . However I remember there was a shop called McCracken's at the end of the High Street in Burntisland. It was next to McCarrys ice cream shop .
That was my Dad's shop. It was mainly a newsagents but also a model railway dealership (Dad was very keen on railways).
Really amazing Ian. Who needs to go to Iceland anayway? I was caught out an only had my mobile but the images were really good. What speed is your timelapse?
Thanks, Dave, it was an incredible sight. I've heard a few people say that if they never see the aurora again they'd be satisfied with what they saw on Friday. The timelapse was created from 200 frames taken over 28 minutes, from 0130hrs to 0158hrs.
Bloody awesome, Ian ❤
Thanks for the comment, Jim, much appreciated! I still can't quite believe that I captured this in my back garden.
Ian, some nice camera moves and editing; it's really interesting to see your work developing. Keep at it. Good choice of music too. As for the building, the demo cost is eye-watering, but hopefully its clearance will allow the site to be developed and bring some life and economic activity to that end of the town centre.
Thanks for the comment David, glad you're enjoying the journey! It seems such a waste to demolish, what is presumably, a perfectly good building but I suppose there will be economic justification for it.
I subscribed😊
Thanks!
Same. Hopefully moving up to fife later this year.
Wow!! Beautiful views. Great video. Thanks for sharing. Sub & 👍6
Thank you, much appreciated 👍
Fabulous footage Ian
Thanks you, glad you enjoyed this 😊
Great footage. You have captured it perfectly 👌 ❤
Thanks for the comment, much appreciated 😊
Such a shame that it’s been allowed to deteriorate like this. Great memories of the ABC minors and watching the Battle of the Bulge three times in one week. Thanks for the video Ian.
It really is a shame how the place has been left to deteriorate. Glad you found it interesting though.
Went to the ABC Minors as well. I can't remember the first film I saw there, but Jaws and Star Wars were memorable. Remember going to see Star Wars one afternoon, afer sitting an O Grade in the morning. I almost had the whole cinema to myself, front row was akin to IMAX, no postage stamp screen.
I remember they used that place for a zombie inspired futuristic type game show, it was shown on one of the main channels can’t remember which 😊
You're right, there was a 2015 reality TV game show made for BBC Three called 'I Survived a Zombie Apocalypse' filmed there.
Great flight Ian. The Sisters are actually quite picturesque given their industrial heritage. Amazing the way nature takes over.
This is the first time I've visited the site so I was interesting to see it from above to get a more complete picture.
Nice smooth flight Ian 👏👏🎥👍
Thanks, Jim, I try and resist the temptation to keep swivelling about when filming!
*promo sm* 😠
There's never a boring moment when watching your channel. Love how engaging everything is.
Thank you for your comment, it is much appreciated 😊
