Fountains Abbey
The ruins of Fountains Abbey in Yorkshire, England. Although I know how they built this, you still can’t help but wonder how they built so high, so long ago.

The shattered remains of the great hall at Kildrummy Castle, in Aberdeenshire.
Betrayed to the besieging English by the castle blacksmith, the castle was destroyed, and the blacksmith received his reward of gold - melted and poured down his throat.
Stonehenge
Stonehenge, ancient, impressive and horribly neglected by government after government, I see no hope for improvement any time soon. Should you get the chance to visit, go early to avoid the crowds, and then head down the road to see the far more impressive, yet similarly neglected Avebury.
Better yet, head to the far north of Scotland for Callanish, or the circles of Aberdeenshire.
Carisbrooke Castle
Carisbrooke Castle on the Isle Of Wight, just off the south coast of England.
