Description Whitby Abbey, Whitby, UK

The moody and magnificent ruins of Whitby Abbey are much more than a spectacular clifftop landmark. Since pre-history, successive generations have been drawn to the headland location as a site of settlement, religious devotion and even literary inspiration.

We had to climb a fence, because it was closed for public, to take a shot of this beauty. I guess it wasn't tourist season at that time.

Hope you enjoy it..

Is just so beautiful!!! the lake the sky but specially that building. I don't know why abbys had such a beautiful place to live!! I want a place like that in its former appeareance somewhere lost , but with nowadays accomodations, central-heating and all! .

Are you living in Uk right now? or you have to travel there very often ? May I ask?

crushone In reply to Pzychonoir [2006-05-22 23:14:39 +0000 UTC]

Abbey is not a person but a monastery [link]
And indeed central-heating.. I don't want to think about it. I guess it will cost you a lot of cash without a roof


yes you may I just like to travel

Uhm.. I can't remember.. I made up the word, I wanted to say the plural from Abess, but it's a long time since I saw that, so ... grr... can't discuss right now!!! must study!! ;(

Pzychonoir In reply to crushone [2006-05-24 06:27:32 +0000 UTC]

It was about old English history! when Abess (abesses) what is the plural of Abess? used to rule the Abbeys? So.. like the head of the Abbey. . But anyway, I give up!
