Description: A brief history of this Lancashire abbey by its Warden, Canon Geoffrey Williams. The ruins are open to the public.
Although Whalley is a place where Christian worship has been offered for well over a thousand years - as the crosses in the churchyard testify - the monks came at a comparatively late date. The Cistercian monastery at Stanlow in Cheshire was founded in A.D.1170. In 1193 Roger, Baron Halton, the son of the founder of the Abbey, inherited the land titles and dignities of his kinsman Robert deLacy.
