I’m still finding photos I had thought long lost after the demise of my laptop earlier this year and when I happened upon this wee trio of slightly spooky images from a local ruined abbey, although I realise it isn’t quite time for Halloween, I thought they might make a fun contribution to this week’s WordPress Photo Challenge – Careful. I certainly would be very careful around this particular set of buildings after nightfall………

It does a bit doesn’t it but that’s a bit of artistic licence really, these wonderful old ruins are actually right in a built up area near a cement works, it’s very sad for the ruins !

I’d be careful but I’d still trespass. When we lived (as children) in a Queen Anne house which was next to an abandoned Georgian one, trespassing was heaven. Decades-old newspapers and the like. Sadly, while we were still living next door, it burned down – probably arson (but not us!). A nasty modern block of flats was built in its place.

Oooh sounds thrilling Sarah! I don’t image you find anything interesting abandoned in England any more, too quickly snapped up by developers, but you do still see amazing places here – luckily!

Love the texture of the lock and gate, wondering what is hiding behind the lock gate. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful Monday.
