Whitby Abbey is one of the most iconic heritage sites in the North of England and serves as one of the finest examples of gothic architecture. These spectacular ruins tower over the North Sea and can be seen for miles around. Incredibly, Whitby Abbey dates to the seventh century, but the ruins we see today date largely to the 13th. Whitby abbey is synonymous with Bram Stoker’s Dracula; no wonder it’s so popular within the goth community. . . . . . #whitbyabbey #welcometoyorkshire #gloriousbritai
