Lanercost priory ruins, Cumbria (west view) #24217079
Description
The ruins of Lanercost priory, in Brampton, Cumbria, England. The estimated date of its construction is 1169, and was dedicated to Saint Mary Magdalene. Being so close to the border of Scotland, it has seen many raids and skirmishes between the English and the Scots, and is reputed to have been the headquarters of Robert the Bruce, and his army. Where the building is roofed to the left, is still a functioning church.
