Tintern Abbey was founded in 1131 by Cistercian monks, standing on the banks of the River Wye is now a romantic ruin and is a natural place to stop if you are traveling into Wales via the old Severn Bridge and heading for the A40. We stop here for the toilet and a cup of tea on most trips into Wales.




It’s so fascinating to gaze upon a centuries-old ruin while imagining the people who once lived there. They are long since gone, but the structure remains to tell their story. Amazing.

It’s hard to imagine building these wonderful old buildings without the machinery we have today.
