More about this scene
This attractive small town has many picturesque old houses in its narrow streets. The village shop (centre) does a good trade in cycle parts, but at certain times in the religious calendar, pilgrims arrive on foot from all over Europe. A large number of religious houses exist, and there was an Augustinian priory here as far back as 1061. The half-timbered jettied building has a steep roof of cascading pantiles. On the right is the 60ft-high west gate to the once huge priory, which was surrounded by a high wall one mile long. Unfortunately, part of the wall near the gate has been converted into public toilets - although essential, they seem out of place.
