Founded around 1210, this ancient house of Augustinian canons exudes an air of mystery and tranquility. Jim Hancock's expertly captured aerial shot allows us a unique perspective on the remains of this medieval priory, now integrated into a working farm. The standout feature is undoubtedly the majestic tower of the church, proudly reaching towards the heavens. Its weathered stone walls tell tales of centuries past, whispering secrets only history can reveal. The surrounding landscape showcases nature's embrace as it gently surrounds this architectural gem. As we gaze upon this photograph from July 1969, we are transported to a bygone era where monks once roamed these hallowed grounds in devotion and contemplation.
