Burnham Abbey

Burnham Abbey, founded in 1266, is a Grade I listed building that has been restored in 1915 and is currently used as a convent. The structure is built from flint and chalk rubble, with 16th-century brick restorations and additions, topped with handmade tile roofs. Key features include the Chapter House, Sacristy, and parts of the Frater and Infirmary. The east range of the cloister has six small two-light casements, one larger two-light casement, and an extended window that was formerly a loft entrance, all featuring leaded lights. The Chapter House has a 13th-century moulded two-centred arched doorway, and the room itself contains three lancets in its recently extended east end. The Sacristy features 16th-century windows and a fireplace. The original south wall of the Frater includes a 16th-century doorway and fireplace, while the Infirmary has 13th-century lancet windows, a blocked doorway, and 16th-century windows.
