GREEN ABBEY
Abandoned abbey with moss covered vault in Ireland
A stone room with ribbed vaulting, its arches and walls almost entirely covered in green moss. A pointed Gothic archway leads into a further vaulted space, above it stone reliefs with carved figures are set into the wall, with a narrow stone bench along the side. The light stays muted and diffuse, the rough-cut stone surface reading as heavy and cool. Vegetation has drawn a fine green skin over the architecture.
