Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ruined Abbeys of Britain The object of the present publication is to supply a want - that of a pictorial history of the chief ruined abbeys of Britain. There are many valuable histories of individual or local groupings of abbeys; many detailed accounts in country histories; and numberless guide books, more or less complete, but generally very meagre in detail. There are also a few works of a more comprehensive character, which profess to give accounts of all the principal ruins, but these are mainly mere epitomes, and often without views or plans. There appeared, therefore, to be an opening for a general history, giving a full historical and descriptive account of the ruins, with ample illustrations, which should be at once a book for the library and for the drawing-room table, - a book for the student and for the superficial reader. Such a work is contemplated in these pages; the materials are gathered from the most authentic sources, and have been arranged in consecutive order, with a view of avoiding, on the one hand the dry matter-of - fact style of the antiquary, on the other the verbose style which ignores facts and details, and indulges rather in poetical imaginings than in accuracy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cartulary and Historical Notes of the Cistercian Abbey of Flaxley: Otherwise Called Dene Abbey, in the County of Gloucester In the following notes an attempt has been made to weave into a connected narrative the scattered references which may be found in the public records relating to the Cistercian Abbey of Flaxley in Gloucestershire. Founded within the limits of the royal Forest of Dean during the reign of Stephen, this Abbey occupied in many respects an exceptional position. As formally notified in the Charter of Richard I., it was considered to be specially under the protection of the sovereign, and all its more important rights and privileges were derived from the favor of the crown. King John and King Edward III. appear to have paid frequent visits to Flaxley Abbey, probably for the purpose of hunting. The visits of the former are recorded in the well-known "Itinerary of King John." King Edward III. has left an important record of his visits to the Abbey in the shape of a formal deed granting to the monks a sum of 36. 9s. 1d. from the newly reclaimed land in the Forest, on account of injuries inflicted by the deer, and of special expenses incurred by the frequent royal visits. The privileges granted to the monks within Forest limits appear to have brought them into constant collision with the Forest authorities, who were under the control of the Constable of St. Briavell's Castle, and the sovereign appears to have been constantly invoked to protect and enforce the privileges of the Flaxley monks within Forest limits. To this circumstance are to be attributed the numerous references to Flaxley Abbey in the Close Rolls, consisting chiefly of writs and orders addressed to the Forest authorities on behalf of the monks. The Abbot of Flaxley was summoned to Parliament on several occasions in the reign of Edward I., and is noticed as being present at the burial, in Tewkesbury Abbey, of Gilbert de Clare, in 1230; and at the settlement of a dispute between the Abbots of Margan and Caerleon in 1256. The only important public event with which the history of Flaxley Abbey seems to have been associated, was the insurrection of Hubert de Burgh in 1234.
