Alignments, Secret Doors & Hidden Views: Whalley Abbey, Lancashire

Whalley Abbey is a Cistercian foundation, founded 1296. Initial building was slow due to lack of funding. The Abbey was closed in 1537 following the Dissolution of the Monasteries.

A 'thing' of mine is making alignments that really aren't there. A bit like making my own lay lines! Lining up doors, cavities, etc. Anyone can join up two points to make a straight line!

 

And doors which are ajar; I think that comes from a childhood memory of a BBC drama called 'The Secret Garden'. Sometime in the 1960's!

 

And views from windows which have never been viewed in centuries!

 

Enjoy!
