The magnificent Tewkesbury Abbey, founded in 1092.
Within its walls you can find the tombs of Despensers, Nevilles, Beauchamps, and even the Duke of Clarence who was reported to have been drowned in a butt of Malmsey wine.
The Wars of the Roses loom large here 🗃️
Went for a little walk in Lincoln today. Did you know that when it was first built, it was higher than the pyramids? I also found out the spire was removed in the 1500s !

Pretty astonished by the viticulture in Cyprus. No phylloxera so there are 100 + year old vineyards tucked away seemingly round every corner.
