Fountains Abbey reveal damage caused by Storm Christoph

Fountains Abbey have shared photos from the aftermath of Storm Christoph, with the weather taking its toll on the world heritage site.

Fountains Abbey and Studley Royal National Trust have shared photos from the aftermath of Storm Christoph, with the extreme weather taking its toll on the world heritage site.
