The image showcases the remnants of St Andrews College and its surrounding moat earthwork, transporting viewers back to a bygone era. The photograph offers a unique perspective from above, allowing us to appreciate the intricate details and layout of this ancient site. The college's architectural remains are visible amidst the lush greenery that now blankets Acaster Marshes.
