Setting up a chess game to attract an opponent by Beausoleil Star this if you like it!
Ed saw a chess game sitting alone in the forest and couldn't help setting it up to see if he could entice someone to make the next move. It worked. We no sooner walked away than another gentleman hurried over to make his move. There is something a chess player can't resist about these outdoor games. Rievaulx Terrace, located in the North York Moors National Park, overlooks Rievaulx Abbey and is owned by the National Trust. The half-mile long grass terrace follows a serpentine course along a wooded escarpment designed to give multiple views of the ruins of Rievaulx Abbey. There are two mid 18th century temples including the Ionic Temple, intended as a banqueting house, with elaborate ceiling paintings and fine 18th century furniture and the Tuscan Temple at the far end.
