Snowdrop walk
On a cold day towards the end of February I went on a snowdrop walk and workshop with my friend Beryl at Knot (where I regularly go for classes/workshops). The town where she has her studio (and where I went to college) has the remains of a priory (dissolved in 1540 and partially demolished sometime between then and 1709). The east gable was kept as a feature and it's very striking and instantly recognisable to people who know the area. The remaining gable of Gisborough Priory The grounds of the priory are owned by English Heritage so we weren't allowed to go past/through this hedge on the left - this was the best photo of the priory I could get but there are lots more here and there's a tour of it here if you're interested in seeing more. Our walk centred on the Monks' Walk which is in the photo at the end of my last post and which was established by 1773. Monks' Walk - a double avenue of lime trees It's hard to tell in the photos ...
