What is a ruin? We’re running off of “You know it when you see it” at the moment. Ruins should be non-functioning structures of some age, or their function reduced to tourism and the like.

Generally speaking, specific items from a ruin should go to !historyartifacts@lemmy.world

Illustrations of ruins (or their reconstructions) should go to !historyillustrations@lemmy.world

Photos of ruins back when they were functioning should go to !HistoryPorn@lemmy.world

Also thank you OP for correctly identifying the building here. Everyone else, including Zuckerman, appears to have mislabelled it as the ruined cathedral in St Andrews.

Yeah, I usually try to find multiple angles of a place to confirm it's correctly labeled. Online captions are... limited in their reliability, lol

To the best of my knowledge, St Rule was not a time-travelling 196 contributor

That's just what Saint Rule WANTS you to think
