This is where I spent all day with our Parish Leadership Group planning 2019-2020. This image shows the main accommodation and administrative blocks for the monks themselves with the abbey church in the middle and is perhaps 20% of the buildings on the site which include a large working farm staffed and run by the monks themselves.
The highlight of the day for me was the morning mass animated by 40+ monks singing Gregorian chant... literally spine-chilling.
