Tintern Abbey

RECOMMENDATION Keywords:
Ruin - Ancient
Comment from Tighthead Prop
This historic site is just over the English border into Wales. It is a great example of the many ruined sites that you can find around the UK. There is a slight charge to get into the grounds, but it is great to have a wander around one of the greatest monastic ruins of Wales. I think it was first built around the 11th century.
