Byland Abbey

Byland Abbey near Thirsk
Byland was probably the most ambitious Cistercian abbey built in England during the 12th century. It was designed to accommodate about 100 monks and 200 lay brothers.
Byland Abbey inspired the design of church buildings throughout the North. 
A truly outstanding example of early gothic architecture, it inspired the design of the famous York Minster Rose window.
