Ancient ruins

EASBY ABBEY RICHMOND NORTH YORKSHIRE

Easby Abbey, or the Abbey of St Agatha, is a ruined Premonstratensian abbey on the eastern bank of the River Swale on the outskirts of Richmond in the Richmondshire district of North Yorkshire, England. The site is maintained by English Heritage and can be reached by a riverside walk from Richmond Castle. Within the precinct is the still-active parish church, displaying 13th-century wall paintings.

Re: Ancient ruins

This is/was Thurso Castle, one of the many ruins in the area. I often wander around here with the dog.

Re: Ancient ruins

We have Battle Abbey near us which is a ruin as well. Pity they were destroyed in years gone by
