There has long been a tradition of monasticism in the North of England, especially in Yorkshire where abbeys were established as early as the 7th century. Despite repeated Viking raids and the harrowing of the North by William I, these abbeys flourished.
Perhaps the most impressive abbey is Fountains Abbey, famous for its superb setting and extensive ruins. Fountains Abbey lies along the valley of the River Skell about two miles west of Ripon. The Abbey, Britain’s largest monastic ruin, was founded in 1132 by thirteen Benedictine monks from St Mary’s Abbey in York seeking a simpler life, who later became Cistercian monks.
