Netley Abbey is a ruined late medieval monastery in the village of Netley near Southampton in Hampshire, England. The abbey was founded in 1239 as a house for Roman Catholic monks of the austere Cistercian order. Despite being a royal abbey, Netley was never rich, produced no influential scholars nor churchmen, and its nearly 300-year history was quiet. The monks were best known to their neighbours for the generous hospitality they offered to travellers on land and sea.
Woah! I’m really enjoying the template/theme
of this site. It’s simple, yet effective. A lot of times it’s difficult to get that
“perfect balance” between superb usability and
visual appearance. I must say you have done a great job with this.
In addition, the blog loads extremely quick for me on Internet explorer.
Outstanding Blog!
