Anglesey Abbey, Cambridgeshire
Originally an Augustinian Priory, built sometime between 1100 and 1135. The Augustine canons were expelled in 1535 during the Dissolution of the Monasteries and the priory was then converted into a country house.
The house was brought in 1926 by Huttleston Broughton (later Lord Fairhaven) and fully restored as it had fallen into disrepair.
Lord Fairhaven left Anglesey Abbey to the National Trust upon his death in 1966.
