Geocache Description:

The Berwick area was the favourite holiday destination for LS
Lowry. He did this from the 1930s right through to his death in the
1970s.

His love of the area is shown in the large set of drawings and
paintings of the people and places. In recognition of this, the
town council erected a series of story boards around Berwick,
Tweedmouth and Spittal. Each board has a painting/drawing on it
that he did at that location.

In this series of caches, I have placed a box on or near the
board.

Go get the cache, look at Lowry's picture, read the blurb and look
at how the view has changed/not changed today. I have placed a
cache at most of the boards, however caching rules mean that not
every board has a cache. Nevertheless you are strongly recommended
to visit all the boards. There are 18 boards in total and they are
all within walking distance.

This particular cache is for the board "The Sea":

In the 1940s Lowry painted a number of sea scenes. You really
get the feel for the forboding nature of the water and it's no
surprise to learn that Lowry was very wary of it, particularly the
North Sea. (be careful yourselves on the pier!)
