Thanks for posting some lovely shots of one of my favourite places.
One of the highlights of our trip down the Cotswold Way last year was brought about because I was reading Hilary Mantel's Wolf Hall, which is about Thomas Cromwell. We turned a corner and there was a plaque stating "Thomas Cromwell stood here and watched the dismantling of Hailes Abbey". One of those unexpected moments. I often wonder how we'd have been able to look after all of those lovely buildings in these times of austerity if Henry and his henchman Cromwell hadn't dismantled them. There were hundreds.
