Launde Abbey in the Rain

The journey to Launde Abbey (near Rutland Water) for a Nature Photographers convention involved a large number of flooded roads both near home in Cambridgeshire and around the Abbey itself. I took a paddle around the grounds before the first session started.

Abbey Dore, Herefordshire

Abbey Dore is the only former Cistercian Abbey still used for worship as a parish church though much of the Abbey has been demolished. Founded in 1147, used by Cistercian Monks in the 13th and14th century, it is a very impressive structure with lots of interesting features and preserved stone carvings. Enjoyed the challenge of a 280 degree panorama and some moody monochrome conversions.

Abbaye de Beauport, Brittany


Abbaye de Beauport was founded in 1202 near Paimpol. Built on high ground, it dominates the landscape, with breathtaking views of the sea and marshes. There are six centuries of monastic history plus the orchard collections, walled garden and cloisters. It is managed by the ‘Conservatoire du littoral’.
