Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ruins of Fountains Abbey It was this command to build monasteries in remote districts which made the Cistercian monks so famous for agriculture. They had to cultivate the soil or die of hunger, and thus became excellent farmers. And it was from the remote position of the Cistercian monasteries that their ruins are far more extensive than those of other' orders which were built in more populous places, and were more easily pulled down.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The materials out of which this book is made were taken mainly from two sources: a description and explanation of the Abbey ruins by Mr. W. H. St. John Hope, and a collection and annotation of the Abbey records by Mr. John Richard Walbran. The ruins have been minutely examined by Mr. St. John Hope, who has left no stone unconsidered. He has brought to his study of the Abbey a profound knowledge of monastic architecture. The account of his investigations is published in the fifteenth volume of the "Yorkshire Archæological Journal," to which is appended a historical ground-plan of the Abbey, drawn by Mr. Harold Brakspear. The Marquess of Ripon has had copies of this plan framed and placed in various parts of the buildings for the information of visitors. Through the courtesy of Mr. Hope and Mr. Brakspear I am enabled to give a reduced version of this excellent plan.
