Fountains Abbey, North Yorkshire by Baz Richardson (away again!) Fountains Abbey, near Ripon in North Yorkshire, is one of the largest and best preserved ruined Cistercian monasteries in England. Founded in 1132, the abbey operated for over 400 years, until 1539, when Henry VIII ordered the Dissolution of the Monasteries. The abbey is a Grade I listed building owned by the National Trust and part of the designated Studley Royal Park including the Ruins of Fountains Abbey UNESCO World Heritage Site. https://flic.kr/p/g2di5M -- source link
