We went to Fountains Abbey today. @ric might have enjoyed the walk, but I was mostly looking at the remnants of historic lime finishes. Here are the photos I took with us in, the rest are mostly lime.

For #TravelThursday here's something from the UK as we sometimes travel here. Fountains Abbey was founded in the 12th century after a falling out among Benedictine monks in York led to 13 of them joining the Cistercian order and building the abbey in accordance with Cistercian architectural practice. By 1535 it was the wealthiest Cistercian monastery in the country. But then Henry VIII went dissolution crazy.

Little bit proud of this… completed my 100th different parkrun event a couple of weeks ago at the iconic #FountainsAbbey #parkrun (at 204 parkruns overall). Got to wear my newly updated t-shirt yesterday at my home event #ItchenValley. #loveparkrun

13th March 2013 - we visited the absolutely huge Fountains Abbey, in Yorkshire. Now a ruin, after Henry VIII dissolved the monasteries, reclaiming much of the materials (including the roof lead) in the process.
I saw my first (live) pheasant here too.

Later we moved on to Easby Abbey where we found some snow, and some moss.

We ended the day at The George, in Piercebridge (not pictured).
