Sweetheart Abbey

On our second day of abbey exploring Kelli and I meandered down South to hit up Sweetheart Abbey. This wasn't the largest of abbeys, but it was built out of a red stone you find out here sometimes, which gives the structure an interesting look. That, and the fact that grass had grown in the inner-structure made the look of the place really interesting.


Here you can see the red in the stone a bit more. This was a tomb that sat on the side portion of the cathedral next to the altar.



Here is a shot while standing in the middle of the nave looking down to where the altar would have been. The grass was so green that it almost mutes the color of the cathedral.



This pic is the same as before but now standing outside of the main entrance looking down the nave.



This last shot is from the corner of the graveyard looking back at the abbey. It was beatiful while we were there.
