Now, I should explain that a " cloister" (cloister) is another word for a convent or a monastery, a religious building associated with the Catholic Church.
The Fermanagh lakelands with their roaming waterways and cloistered islands, the Mourne Mountains and their many walks and ways that slowly spill down to the sea.
THINK of a university and what comes to mind may be the cloistered calm of Oxford, the architectural chaos of MIT or even, perhaps, the 1950s brutalism of Moscow.
