This ruin is all that remains of Great Yarmouth's 13th Century Franciscan Friary. Inside, there are two stone-vaulted cloisters, two tomb recesses and some 14th-century wall paintings discovered in the 1960s. The friary thrived, even surviving an outbreak of the Black Death, until the Dissolution of the Monasteries, when the buildings passed into private hands. The Cloisters are now owned by English Heritage and open daily from April to September.
