| About | Thornton Abbey is one of the largest fortified gatehouses in England, which is enormous and ornate. The building is a Grade I listed building, notably England's largest and most impressive surviving monastic gatehouse. The Abbey's impressive architecture reflects the abbey's history as one of Britain's richest Augustinian abbeys. The founding 12th-century abbey building was Romanesque in style. The later 13th/14th-century abbey was constructed in an Early Gothic style. You can discover the turbulent lives of its former residents and try to spot the local wildlife. This North Lincolnshire tourist attraction is the ideal way to spend a day. It affords free admission. |
