Description
Romsey Abbey is the name currently given to a parish church of the Church of England in Romsey, a market town in Hampshire, England. Until the Dissolution of the Monasteries it was the church of a Benedictine nunnery.The church was originally built during the 10th century, as part of a monastic foundation of Benedictine women. Its imposing nature is all the more remarkable because as a nunnery the abbey would have been less well financially endowed than other, male, monasteries of the time.
