    We conclude this short tour with a view of a 19th century tombstone in the Abbey's burial ground.

    Great pics Alex!

    The winter sunshine makes for some very striking colours and textures of the stone. Hope you and the missus are keeping well.

    Thanks, Cessna, I enjoyed the tour.

    There's grandeur even in the ruins; I can only imagine how lovely the abbey must have been before its destruction.
