SY5785 : Tithe Barn, Abbotsbury Abbey
taken 3 years ago, near to Abbotsbury, Dorset, England
Tithe Barn, Abbotsbury Abbey
The abbey’s great tithe barn, dating from the 14th century. Nearly 80 metres (262 feet) long, this barn was once one of the largest in England, with two porches, each with a watching chamber over the entrance.
The capacity of the tithe barn is a convincing witness to the abbey’s wealth. Today, only half of the barn is still roofed.
