WASS, ENGLAND - MAY 08: A nun looks at books in the temporary library at Stanbrook Abbey on May 8, 2017 in Wass, England. Stanbrook Abbey is located in the North Yorkshire Moors National Park and claims to be the world's first environmentally friendly nunnery. In 2016 Stanbrook Abbey Church won the 2016 RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects) Award for Yorkshire and the Presidents' Award for new church building, awarded on behalf of the National Churches Trust's Joint Presidents, the Archbishops of Canterbury and York and the Ecclesiastical Architects and Surveyors Association President. Designed by Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios at a total cost of 7.5M GBP, it features solar panels, rainwater harvesting and a sedum roof. It is home to 20 nuns of the Benedictine order Conventus of Our Lady of Consolation after they relocated from a Grade II listed church in Worcester that had proved to be uneconomical and unmanageable.
