Do you have plans for your free time? Plan a wander through history at Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal. Ruins, still water reflecting historic follies and statues and snowdrops starting to open. And of course, there’s tea and scones to cover other day out essentials.

The ruins at Fountains Abbey are the largest monastic ruins in England. The abbey was founded in 1132 by 13 Benedictine monks from St Mary’s in York. They'd grown tired of the extravagant and rowdy way that the monks lived in York and so they escaped, seeking to live a devout and simple lifestyle elsewhere. This was how they came to Fountains. #fountainsabbey #northyorkshire #virals #beautifuldestinations #yorkshire #Abbeys | Beauty of the World

An aerial pan at Fountains Abbey, captured on a cold morning with a light mist hanging in the valley. Founded in 1132, this became one of the great Cistercian houses of England - built on discipline, organisation, and a landscape shaped to serve the abbey as much as frame it. From above, the scale makes sense: the long church, the ranges, the layout of a working monastic world rather than a single “ruin”. The mist does something brilliant here. It softens the edges, pulls the eye along the river

Fountains Abbey has stood in ruin for over 500 years. I initially assumed that it had been destroyed along with many other religious buildings under the rule of Henry VIII, but that was only part of the story. It was then sold off to private land owners who would strip it of all valuable materials. #FountainsAbbey #History #Yorkshire #Ruins #DJI
