The weathered ruins of St Mary's Abbey. The crumbling limestone walls with high, pointed Gothic arches frame the dark foliage of large trees behind them. The yellow, sand, and black stone surface shows centuries of erosion. Overhead are heavy grey clouds in a blue sky.

Fun visit to my old college town of York with friends last weekend. I’m amazed after having lived there for 3 years how much there is left to discover, never mind what’s changed since the mid 90s! #York #Minster #ConstantineTheGreat #YorkAbbey #YorkMuseumGardens
