    Arrow Convent DW

    VISITED WITH SAMMYDOUBLEWHAMMY AND BOBA LOW

    CONVENT DW




    First off Id like to mention, Photobucket you are shit! WHY DID YOU CHANGE!!!

    First time we went here, I forgot my memory card so I had to walk round thinking what a slack knacker I am. Its really hard just getting in the compound and I felt a chomp to be having to do it again. But climb that wall and rapple down we did again for a revisit this time with my SDcard! Cheers Sam!

    The nunnery closed recently and they were shipped off somewhere else as they were only 4 of them living here and couldnt afford the up keep. They lived here, grew there own food here, raised chickens for there eggs here and then when they died? They were buried here! NEVER LEFT!



    This bit was a music room with pianos, Ge'tars, horn things and drum things.









    Statues are Everywhere with pretty much everything in place.





    There are two church bits with them facing each other with a curtain seperating the two so the nuns can pray with the public but still be all hidden away.





    The attic was like a giant dressing up box.











    And finally the graveyard, quite bigger then I imagined. Proper banging so glad we went back!



    Thats it cheers!

    Nun today, nun tomorrow...

    You'd have thought that they would have taken their stuff with them. Is it up for sale or used by anyone else?

    Very nice indeed!
