Shap Abbey

The abbey was situated on the banks of the River Lowther

On the way from the car park to the abbey, a tile is set into a post y the bridge

Of all the buildings, only the tower is still standing

The River Lowther

The primroses on the river bank looked very fresh, even in May

The primroses enticed me onto the far bank for a close look

It was well worth clambering down from the path for a closer look at the Primroses on the river bank

The Abbey stood on the banks of the river

The tower is not what it was, but is still standing
