We are attempting to list all places where
photographers can photograph Abbeys and Religious buildings within the UK, by
county. This is the start of a list
that will both grow over time and
hopefully we will be able to add more columns or information. This same
information is also available in alphabetical order.
Where the names in the first column is hyperlinked
this links to a Location page with more information on this
site and over time more of these will be added, we will be delighted if some of
you would like to also produce location pages.
