Life where we live: Solo living in the English countryside

Priory of St Mary in the meadow (Beeston Priory)

I'm very rubbish at finding information. I often go visiting places without doing any research. I should really because for instance, Beeston Priory is very old and it must have a lot of interesting history and it would be nice to know it before hand. All the same, it's also nice to have a delightful discovery - sort of a serendipity.                     I knew since I first saw the priory in the distance that I would love it. There was something gentle and magical about the place. From those horses to the lovely scenery surrounding it and the atmosphere which was serene and dreamy.  What makes this place different from other priory I have been to is the size and the surroundings. It's small, half hidden. You don't realise it's there and then all of a sudden it's just right there. I don't know if it will get busier in the summer or during school holiday but in that April afternoon - I had the place all by myself.     ...
