Carthusian Monks cycle to prayer in deserted cloisters at St Hughs Charterhouse monastry Cowfold Sussex . It was orignally built for 250 monks and now novices and abbot alike ride bicycles round the cloisters from their cells to prayer and work. The monastery is so vast the bikes are the most practical way for the brothers to get around it . 22 June 1995 Picture by Roger Bamber
