Delapré Abbey, Northampton
A disused Victorian farmyard on the Delapré Abbey estate (or more correctly, the estate of The Abbey of St Mary de la Pré (i.e. the Abbey of St Mary in the Meadow). The country house/former monastery itself is situated off the A506 in the meadows of the River Nene, to the south of Northampton. Ransom Road runs behind this disused farmyard (note the television aerial on the roof of an adjacent former farm cottage), although the road is inaccessible to the walkers using the public footpath from which this photograph was taken.
