"Creake Abbey is a ruined abbey in Norfolk, England, situated alongside the River Burn and a mile to the north of the village of North Creake. The abbey church was dedicated to Saint Mary. "The site was originally occupied by an almshouse for the poor, and was founded by the Augustinians as a priory in the 12th century. Voluntary grants of alms by the leading families of Nerford and Creake and by the faithful of the neighbourhood seem to have built up resources sufficiently to warrant elevation from Hospital to Priory and thence to Abbey, which happened in 1231. Henry III made a number of grants to Creake in its early years. Gifts of parish churches included Hapton and Wreningham, Gateley and St. Martin at Quarles and later in 1365 of St. Andrew, Great Ringstead. "The heyday of the Abbey was during the fourteenth century when there were but six canons, though the Rule required in addition to the abbot, prior and cellarer, a cantor, sacrist and kitchener, refectorian, infirmarian, almoner, master of novices and guest master."

Such a hot English day. The sun beats down from above on the ruins of this ancient abbey in North Creake and has done at least as far back as 1206. Nelson was born less than a mile to the North. And I read with interest on the information board that a devastating fire tore trough the Abbey in c.1484, and, for once it seems, our Henry is innocent. I settled down with sketchpad on a crumbling pillar, and captured the timelessness of the Abbey with this illustration. The odd tourist was dwarfed by the still-present magnificence of its Norman crossing arch and its high walls (at least) still sheltered its flock with huge diagonal chunks of cooling shadow.
