Great tea barn just past the Abbey car park

The wall paintings are wonderful - always a joy to see. The bike ride alongside the Swale is perfect. Watch out for herons, which can often be seen fishing on a rock. The ice cream at the parlour as you arrive at the station is delicious. The deli just inside is also fabulous…….

Biggest ruins I've seen, no entry fee, lots of interesting places to see, my favourite part was the roof underneath the refectory

Easy short delightful walk, with history included!!

Best to visit the day after a heavy downpour of rain 🌧️🌧️

The bridge was originally built in 1422, probably rebuilt in the late 16th century and widened in 1792.

The church dates from 1868. It can be regarded as a prestige project of the then pastor, Father William Strickland: once finished, everyone was amazed by the beauty, but also amazed by the price. She put the parish in huge debt and Father Strickland in big trouble with his superiors. His parishioners objected to the amount of the debt, in particular to the construction of the school, which they believed could have been provided more cheaply. This building is now used as a parish hall.

Easby Abbey was founded in 1152 but demolished in the mid 1500s. The ruins are free to visit, with information boards set up and managed by English Heritage. The parish church is still used and contains 13th century wall paintings.
