Furness Abbey

Furness Abbey is a really stunning historic ruin with plenty of features to explore, plus a lot of green space around it to run about in and see it from all angles, or to play hide and seek. There is also a historically themed book box available in the Visitor Centre plus extra activities and resources are laid out in the education room during major school holidays.

The height of the soaring red sandstone walls will surprise you and you can see why restoration work is being done to stop them sinking into the ground!
