context_page_description: Lindisfarne, is a tidal island off the north-east coast of England. It is connected to the mainland of Northumberland by a causeway and is cut off twice a day by tides – something well described by Sir Walter Scott:
  For with the flow and ebb, its style
  Varies from continent to isle;
  Dry shod o'er sands, twice every day,
  The pilgrims to the shrine find way;
  Twice every day the waves efface
  Of staves and sandalled feet the trace.
  According to the 2001 census it had a usual population of 162.
