Description: | 1723.
Hand-coloured glass slide of an engraving dated 1723 showing the ruins of Kirkstall Abbey from the south by Samuel Buck (1696-1779). You can see from left to right: the laybrothers' reredorter, the south wall of the cellarium (this no longer survives), the entrance to the laybrothers' lane, the kitchen and the refectory before the artist seems to have become confused. The round building seems to be a dovec?te attached to the meat kitchen. The buidlings to the right must be the monks' reredorter or toilet and the abbot's lodging. | License: | http://www.leodis.net/article.aspx?id=12 | Rights holder: | Leeds Central Library | Subjects: | Kirkstall Abbey | Source: | Leodis - A photographic archive of Leeds | Identifier: | http://www.leodis.net/display.aspx?id=20... | Go to resource |
