Pictures of St Augustine’s Abbey Ramsgate

As some readers will already know the community of Benedictine monks that have lived in the abbey for the last 150 years moved out recently and sold the abbey to another part of the catholic church Divine Retreats, see http://www.divineuk.org/Divine_Retreat_Centres_Kent.htm

Yesterday they held the Blessing and Inauguration of Divine Retreat Centre UK which is now based at the abbey and Ben went and took some photos which are below, click on them to expand them.

For me this is an opportunity to see parts of the inside of a major Ramsgate listed property that may or may be repeatable, enjoy Ben's pictures I am.

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
