Manor Road Barrow Cumbria LA13 0PJ United Kingdom
Impressive red stone ruins of one of Northern England's most powerful monasteries . Run by English Heritage.
Take a stroll to the top of the amphitheatre for the best views of the Abbey .
Brilliant historical site
Come and visit in summer!
£4 for ruins is disgusting. I can visit a working Abbey for free! £1-2 I may not have grumbled.
