I gained access to the working dock where this old fishing barge was moored. I got down on my knees for a water level view to capture the golden depth of reflection and water and also give a glimpse of the sky and harbour beyond.
Malmesbury was founded as a Benedictine monastery around 676 by the scholar-poet Aldhelm, a nephew of King Ine of Wessex. In 941 AD, King Athelstan, one of the greatest West Saxon Kings after King Alfred the Great, was buried in the Abbey. Æthelstan had died in Gloucester in October 939. The choice of Malmesbury over the New Minster in Winchester indicated that the king remained an outsider to the West Saxon court.<br />

The current Abbey was substantially completed by 1180.
