Keepers of the Abbey

The Doves at Easby Abbey are by far the most present force now at the site. They fly through corridors and narrow passages today like perhaps they did when the monks lived there? One white dove in particular elegantly broods over the proceedings, I can't but think of the 'White Monks' that used to live and share this place. They (the doves) are firmly imbeded into the architecture, roosting inside the walls and sounding their calls throughout the structures bones. It feels like they are watching you, like somehow this is their home and always has been - past, present, and future they are the keppers of the Abbey.
