Lanthony Priory is a beautiful partly ruined former Augustinian priory in the magical Vale of Ewyas near Abergavenny. I’d like to say the glorious walk along Offas Dyke to get there was the best bit … but the fact that there’s a pub in the ruin is pretty bloody awesome.

Away for three days and the Malus Snowdrift crabapple tree burst into, well, a snowstorm of glorious blossom while I was gone. This was a Covid planting. It’s come along nicely. #gardensky
