Founded in 1152 by the Premonstratensian order, Easby Abbey has witnessed centuries of North Yorkshire’s rich monastic history. Despite the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII, its hauntingly beautiful remains stand as a testament to its former grandeur.
The photograph perfectly balances the abbey's ancient stonework with the lush green fields and flowing waters of the Swale, while the nearby village of Richmond peeks through in the distance. This peaceful composition offers a timeless view of Yorkshire’s historical landscape, making it an ideal addition for lovers of heritage, history, or anyone with a fondness for the area.
