They didn't go so well together. Many beautiful monasteries were left in ruins. However, so well built were these buildings, that much of the ruins still exist today, as Nicole and I found out this summer, when we explored Fountains Abbey in North Yorkshire.
For once in England, the sun was shining too! Some very nice examples of the beauty the English countryside has to offer. In case you haven't seen them yet, here's the public link to the Facebook album, and a few samples from it! Enjoy.

The sun has been shining here a great deal recently !! Warmest April on record but if it doesn't rain soon we will not have that nice green countryside !
