Abbey Fall Wood, North Yorkshire

Monk Wall

Uploader's Comments

The medieval deer park pale surrounding Fountains Park is described at https://www.historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1020120 . "It is unusual for such a significant proportion of a monastic park pale to survive". At this point the feature is described as "a wall up to 0.5m high on the roadside with a stone bank 3m to the west". Much less snow across the Monk Wall within Abbey Fall Wood, as you might expect. Taken from Fountains Lane.
