New Nun In Town
Bex considers a career change, inspired by the Abbey.
Furness Abbey was built by Savigniac Monks in the 12th Century and absorbed by the Cistercian Order in c.1150. It was the second richest Cistercian abbey in England (behind Fountains Abbey) and was disolved in the 1530s on the orders of Henry VIII. Today it's very well preserved and an English Heritage site.
