Abbey Gate

by morgandk - last update: Jun 15, 2005

Bury used to have the largest Abbey in Europe- until the peasants revolted against monastic rule- sacked the Abbey- and used the stones to build their own homes. Still impressive and a nice little city.

 I can't believe you've been to the Greek restaurant in Bury St Edmunds!! I know people who've lived here for 30 years who haven't been! When I went it was quite authentic - half of what we ordered wasn't available - just like Greece!!

 Can`t believe that you ate in the Greek Taverna. I have lived in Bury (on and off) for 25 years and never managed it! ;-))

 Great Info on the Abbey - just up the road from where I live :)
