Reconstruction mock-up of Rievaulx Abbey, Yorkshire (England). Founded in 1132 by monks from Clairvaux Abbey, it was quickly established with support from Walter Espec and King David I of Scotland. #RievaulxAbbey #HistoryRebuilt

A carved stone corbel in the form a grotesque human head, mouth gaping and teeth akimbo, on display in a museum case.
Sunday self-portrait: after a hard night I tend to involuntarily assume the appearance of a circa 1400 grotesque from #RievaulxAbbey. After a few more glasses of water and a walk in the cold rain I'll be fine, I expect. #StoneworkSunday #NorthYorkshire
📷 my own, from 2022.
The ruins of a medieval abbey church. The view is from the nave with the almost intact, but roofless, transepts and eastern arm of the building seen above the ruins of the nave piers.

Rievaulx Abbey near Helmsley, North Yorkshire. Drawn after a New Year's Eve walk. The first time my mum visited it, in 2019. She was 93 last week & probably couldn't manage now.

A small section of mediaeval geometric tiled pavement at #RievaulxAbbey. Little of it survives in situ there (unlike at Byland), but the museum holds much more. #TilesOnTuesday #NorthYorkshire

Some of the C12th carvings in the museum at Rievaulx Abbey, Yorkshire. Good reflection on my current appearance after working late on tedious appraisal paperwork.
Feeling refreshed.

The bridge at Rievaulx and scenes from the ruined Abbey. The walk from Helmsley takes you through farmers fields and woodland before catching sight of the Abbey. Must have been magnificent in its day looking at the remnants found in the archaeological dig (displayed in the entrance).
#JoinMeOnMyWalk Fabulous blue sky walk from #Helmsley to #RievaulxAbbey, with lots of dancing butterflies (although the peacock is Mr Wonderful's shot.) Nature & history beautifully combined. @photohour.bsky.social #EnglishHeritage #Yorkshire #joy #vitaminN
