While the Abbey is closed, a small team remains on site to care for the church. This picture was taken on Friday by a member of our security team as evening sunshine streamed in through The Queen's Window, bathing the memorial to James Wolfe in coloured light.

A few choir members were lucky enough to be taken out onto the water to watch the sunset over Georgian Bay last night. Simply stunning.
