As a visitor to England, the first time you stumble across one of these ruined cathedrals or abbeys, the sheer size and grandeur is staggering. It's also a very obvious photo opportunity! This photo collection can show you a little of what to expect as well as what can be done by good photographers with such an awesome subject.

I’d just like to point out that Tintern Abbey is actually in Wales, not England – so perhaps the title should be ‘The Stunning Ruined Abbeys of England And Wales: A Photo Collection’ ? 🙂
Heheh, I knew that would bother you. 😉
Haha 😉
Similarly, St Andrews Cathedral is in Scotland and wasn’t an abbey.
Very nice. After all the effort to get there at the right time, not to mention all the post processing, it would have been even nicer if at least one of those photographers had bothered to correct the verticals.
I love converging verticals. I am wild like that. 😉
Chad! Thank you for sending me those lovely pictures! I think we were in one of those in Scotland. It was breathtaking! Love you and your techie skills!

Come and look at our abbey in Glastonbury some time!
