Abbey Walks


Byland Abbey - Sunday, November 18th.

Byland Abbey is situated approximately 8 miles south east of Thirsk - 15 minutes driving time.














Rievaulx Abbey - approximately 12 miles east of Thirsk and in the Yorkshire Moors National Park - 20 minutes driving time from Thirsk.

Saturday, 24th November. As you can obviously see - a foggy day - eery, or atmospheric - take your pick! A good place for a Haloween Party? Maybe, or maybe not.

Kilburn White Horse - 6 miles east of Thirsk.


Photographs taken late afternoon on Wednesday and Thursday looking across the White Horse towards Byland Abbey, 3 miles to the east.








If you look carefully in the upper middle, far distance you can just make out Byland Abbey. Lovely, autumn colours of the trees.

Memorial stone and wreath remembering aircrew of a World War 2 bomber and a Sabre Jet who died close by to Sutton Bank. Roulston Scar and Hood Hill in the background.
