Description

Fragmentary remains of Tongland Abbey, said to be a 12th

century foundation. The existing structure consists of the W

gable complete to wallhead with square stone belfry and part

of the N and S side walls; these have been considerably

altered in post-reformation times to form the old Parish

Church. There is a richly moulded round-headed doorway to the

N wall (considerably restored) with dog-tooth moulding,

thought to be a 17th century imitation of medieval work.
