Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Bury St Edmunds Cathedral and Abbey ruins. The contrast between the new cathedral tower and the old Abbey ruins is spectacular. The Abbey was sacked by local townspeople in 1327 and then on the 20th January 1465, a great fire ravaged the Abbey. It destroyed all the roofs, and brought down the central tower and spire. An excellent account of the history of the Abbey can be read at http://www.suffolkchurches.co.uk/buryabbey.html.
