Fix this textBUILDWAS ABBEY,
Fix this textWHERE BENEDICTINE MONKS
Fix this textONCE STRODE
Fix this textTTHE ancient and picturesque ruins of
Fix this textBuildwas Abbey stand on the bank
Fix this textof the Severn, near Much Wenlock and
Fix this textBridgnorth. The Abbey was founded
Fix this texton August 8, 1135, on a site given by the
Fix this textlocal diocesan, Roger de Clinton, Bishop
Fix this textof Coventry and Lichfield.
Fix this textThe original foundation was for the
Fix this textBenedictine monks of the Order of
Fix this textSavigney—an order which originated in
Fix this textNormandy and whose adherents believed
Fix this textin a literal and strict observance of the
Fix this textRule of St. Benedict. In later years,
Fix this texthowever, the monastery at Buildwas
Fix this textjoined the Cistercian Order, and owing to
Fix this textits > importance it administered other
Fix this textfoundations in Wales and Ireland.
Fix this textThe peace of Buildwas was disturbed
Fix this textin 1328 when the abbot was murdered by
Fix this texta monk who had turned apostate, roam-
Fix this texting the country in lay dress and who
Fix this textmanaged to elude all efforts to arrest
Fix this texthim. What happened to him is not
Fix this textrecorded, but the murder of the abbot
Fix this textwas followed by a dispute over the elec-
Fix this texttion of a successor, as there were two
Fix this textclaimants for the vacant office, and con-
Fix this textsequently the abbey suffered from
Fix this textneglect.
Fix this textIn the fourteenth century Buildwas
Fix this textAbbey suffered from the attacks of the
Fix this textWelsh marauders, who, on one occasion,
Fix this textwere led by Owen Glendower. The later
Fix this texthistory of the Abbey was uneventful, and
Fix this textin 1536, during the reign of Henry VIII,
Fix this textit followed the fate of the lesser monas-
Fix this textteries and was surrendered to the Crown.
Fix this textThe annual income of the Abbey at that
Fix this texttime was one hundred and eleven
Fix this textpounds, which was derived from landed
Fix this textpossessions in and around Buildwas, and
Fix this textfrom revenue derived from the toll paid
Fix this texty passengers over the bridge which
Fix this textspans the Severn near the monastery.
