.HE Cistercian Abbey at Ole cleev

III 0OmeTScISIlF6, WAS 1OuIlQeQ
in 1888 by William de Romare,
Il grandson of the Earl of Lin
coin. It's first monks came from
Revesby Abbey. in Lincolnshire, which
had been founded by the same noble
man. Not far away was the chapel of
Our Lady of Cleeve. which was favor
lite place of pilgrimage in medieval
times.
Cleeve Abbey is quite exceptional
among the monastic ruins of Great
Britain, in that the church has almost
disappeared, while the other buildings
are in a remarkable state of preserva-
ton. The present owner has removed
the farm buildings which covered the
church site, and has taken every pains
to preserve the beautiful ruins from
further decay.
The gate house is a structure of the
time of Richard II, with additions by
the last abbot, William Dovell. It con-
tainS a square headed window in the
perpendicular style, above which are
three inches, the central one containing
a sculptured crucifix. On the north side
of the cloister garth are the remains of
the church, and on the west side is a
dormitory in early English style, lighted
by row of lancet windows raised on
Vaulted SubStructure. The dormitory
communicated with the church by a
door and staircase still to be traced. A
fine early English doorway opens from
the dormitory into the cloister. This is
almost the only perfect conventual re-
fectory in England out of the many hun
dreds vacated in the sixteenth century
which has survived to the present day.
The church was originally a structure
161 feet long of the pure Cistercian type,
with cylindrical pillars, low central
tower and short Transcripts with two
square chapels. It's architecture was of
the transitional and early English
styles. Portions of the exquisite en-
caustic tile pavement still remain, and
have been carefully protected by a
super-imposed layer of heavy glass. ,
