Description
The fishing box on the river bank to the east of the Abbey ruins is a stone seat of uncertain date, made from chamfered jamb stones that were repurposed from the Abbey ruins. This structure is approximately 0.35 meters high. The south and west faces feature re-used chamfered jamb stones, while the east face and top consist of rough-dressed slabs. The north side is open, allowing access to a void that is believed to have been used by the monks for fishing, although it is considered unlikely that they used this space for storing their catch, as nearby fields are known to have served as monastic fish ponds.
