At present I am on the Isle of Wight and the other day
I walked with the dog to Quarr Abbey and these are photographs from that
walk. The first few are of the old abbey
first built in the 12 century and then you will see the present abbey in later
images. Also I had another glimpse of
the American aircraft carrier that I showed you on video on THIS POST where you
can see all the planes on board and info about her. I am linking with Good Fences.
This is the Quarr Abbey in the background but that the
other side of that long wall were covered with numerous pears all ripening
beautifully.
In the past I have shared a lot of information and photographs about Quarr Abbey and you will find that in the RHS of the blog
under LABELS and then QUARR ABBEY.
Hope you enjoyed seeing all the fences along my walk today.
Many thanks for visiting and also or leaving comments
wow what a great place with amazing history.
ReplyDeleteLove the abbey, the gardens and the fences. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, gorgeous, peaceful, divine. How I would love to walk here. The aircraft carrier, blue flowers, and pears are just added bonuses. I also love that archway and door.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos and quite a variety of fences in what must be a relatively small area. Love the look of all those pears.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a beautiful place with so much to see & enjoy!
ReplyDeleteI love Quarr Abbey - such a peaceful, tranquil and beautiful place to vist. The American aircraft carrier looks huge!

Beautiful place! Like from a historical film!
ReplyDeleteYou and your dog must have had a terrific walk from the excellent photos you shot. The Quarr Abby is great looking. That aircraft carrier is the USS H. W. Bush, a Nimitz class super-carrier, the last one built. President H. W. Bush was a Naval aviator.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tour!
ReplyDeleteThanks for another great post.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a beautiful walk to take.
ReplyDeleteLove your photos of the abbey. The last image is just delightful, I imagine a peaceful retreat behind that little fence.
ReplyDeleteI find the aircraft carrier very interesting. my late husband built a fairy large scale model of a ship such as this.I still have it downstairs, under a protective plexiglass-glass cover.
