Melrose abbey

Melrose abbey was founded in 1136 and the last monk died in 1590 The present rose-stoned abbey was rebuilt around 1385 after it was destroyed by the English (again!)

Super pictures. Thanks for posting them. It has a very interesting history and what you see is seemingly only a very small part of the original.
