August 31, 2022, Church of the Holy Rood and Calvary Cross, Rodbourne

A quaint little church in the village of Rodbourne. There's also a calvaire (cross) close by, which makes a great place to stop and chill for a while.

July 10, 2021, Malmesbury Abbey

Amazingly the abbey has a written history covering 1300 years. Although today little of the monastic complex remains visible, extensive buried remains will survive and the monument is important as a site with early origins and which continued in use as a monastic house until its dissolution in 1535.
