Waverley Abbey ruins 2014
Waverley Abbey was the first Cistercian abbey in England.
It was founded in 1128 by William Giffard, Bishop of Winchester.
The abbey was closed in 1536 as part of King Henry VIII's
Dissolution of the Monasteries. Subsequently largely demolished,
its stone was reused in local buildings,
including "Waverley Abbey House", which was built in 1723.
Only part of the abbey remains standing, with the ruins dating
from the abbey's 13th-century reconstruction.
The most substantial remains are that of the vaulted undercroft,
or cellar, of the lay brother's refectory, and the walls of the monk's
dormitory, which largely survive to roof height.
The ruins of the abbey are a Scheduled Ancient Monument
currently managed by English Heritage.
