Entrance to the Westminster Abbey Cloisters is free after 4:30 PM and can be accessed via the Dean's Yard. The Dean's Yard is through an obvious archway in a separate building on the right when facing the abbey from outside the west Front. The Dean's Yard entrance is facing a large stone and marble column.
The cloisters have two distinct styles of which this is one.
