Description

This monastery was founded in the late 7C. The construction of the abbey church, as it appears today, was started c 1220. The 101m-long building is almost the size of a cathedral and combines a mix of the Decorated (nave) and Perpendicular Gothic (main façade) styles. The Percy family tomb (1340-49) in Decorated style, and the 68 misericords of the choir stalls (early 16C), carved by the Ripon school of wood sculptors, are magnificent.
