Dunwich, Suffolk, England: entrance to Greyfriars

---

Dunwich, Suffolk, England: Greyfriars Franciscan priory founded by Richard FitzJohn between 1228 and 1230 but abandoned due to the advancing sea in 1328. It was rebuilt further inland (outside the original city limits) and the ruins survive to this day, the only building from the town's glory days to do so, although the encroaching cliffs are now but a few feet away.
