Hiking

The special thing about Newtown Abbey, which was built in 1206, is the tomb "jealous man and woman". It consists of a tomb that was modeled on two life-size human bodies. The Elizabethan lawyer Lucas Dillon and his wife Jane Bathe are said to have been buried there. Today only ruins remain of the abbey itself.
