Ruins of Finchale Priory, near Durham, UK [Explore]
Finchale Priory was built end of 12thC, about the same time as Durham Cathedral itself, and was used by the Durham monks as a more pastoral retreat—giving a sense of how well Durham was doing in those days. Today it’s an English Heritage property that’s free to the public, with an adjacent tea shop.
