Absolutely Insane Construction At 12th Century Sawley Abbey!!

Sawley Abbey was an abbey of Cistercian monks in the village of Sawley, Lancashire, in England (and historically in the West Riding of Yorkshire). Created as a daughter-house of Newminster Abbey, it existed from 1149 until its dissolution in 1535 the dissolution act came in 1535-41 Sawley Abbey lasted until 1536 when Henry the 8th's troops paid a visit and started plundering and destroying the Abbey!! The abbey is a Grade I listed building and Scheduled Ancient Monument. The ruins, which are now controlled by English Heritage, are open to the public. Although not an extensive ruin, there are boards on the site that give information regarding the history of the abbey and its former inhabitants. In 1296, the move of the Cistercian monks from Stanlow Abbey to nearby Whalley caused consternation at Sawley. The monks here complained that they had both lost some of their income and that the cost of food and building materials had increased in the face of the extra demand. Even the hope that Whalley would develop a large tannery had caused the local sellers of tree bark to rise their prices to such an extent that Sawley's tanning operation was nearly destroyed. In 1305, at the general chapter of the Cistercian order, the dispute was settled with a command that Whalley should sell any excess produce to Sawley at market rates, and should either abbey's members transgress against the other, those people would be sent to the opposing abbey for punishment. In September 1306, Archbishop William Greenfield excommunicated the abbot, John de Houeden, along with most of the senior monks and they were not absolved for seven years. The reason for this is no longer known. Around this time the Sawley community were further impoverished by attacks of Scots raiding parties, who looted and burnt some of their property, prompting Henry de Percy, 1st Baron Percy of Alnwick to give the church of St. Andrew at Gargrave in 1313. #construction #oldworld #petrifiedwood #Isthisslate #Whatisgoingonhere #cistercian #monkstory #cataclysms #monkstory #ancienthistory #oldworld #whathappenedhere #henryv111 #medievalhistory #middleages #medievalarchitecture #gothicarchitecture #ancienthistory #historicabbey #monasticlife #SacredSpaces #religiousheritage #ecclesiasticalarchitecture
