Melrose Abbey

"If thou wouldst view fair Melrose aright,
Go visit it by the pale moonlight;
For the gay beams of lightsome day
Gild but to flout the ruins gray."


- Sir Walter Scott (From The Lay of the Last Minstrel)

First day of my holiday and I got as far as Melrose for my morning paper so popped into the Abbey to take some photos. I must, as Scott suggested, visit the Abbey in the dark and see if I can get a decent blip.
