| Skip Finchale Priory |
A glorious morning when we made our abortive visit to Finchale Priory (Pronounced Finkal). I'd visited it before (1999) so I wasn't too disappointed when we had to leave without entering the Priory grounds.
Some of the ruins.
The River Wear. All monastic establishments were set up beside a river.
Looking back at the Priory ruins from the footbridge over the river.
Detail of the stone pillars supporting the arch of the Porch.
A first glimpse of our rather nice coach.
