Day 5 - Yorkshire Moors
We reached Rievaulx Abbey after lunch. The abbey site is in the hands of English Heritage, and running along the eastern edge of the site is Rievaulx Terrace, owned by the National Trust. Both sites had been affected by the recent flood and were closed to visitors. Workers were stabilzing the area and checking for any structural damage.
