The history of Newenham Abbey in the County of Devon

by

James Davidson

London: Longman & Co. (1843) vi, 250p, plates: ill.

Prepared by Michael Steer

Newenham was a Cistercian abbey situated near the River Exe, not far from Axminster. It was founded in 1246 by Reginald de Mohun, Earl of Somerset. It survived until the Reformation. In the fifth year of Elizabeth I, the fee of the Abbey was conveyed to Thomas Duke of Norfolk, whose son Lord William Howard disposed of it to Sir John Petre. Members of the celebrated Bonville family of Shute were interred in Abbey grounds before the dissolution that left it in ruins. In 1850, a farm house, about a mile from the town, occupied part of the site of this once splendid and richly endowed abbey: but all that remained of the monastic buildings at the time Davidson wrote this book were a few mouldering walls, and the east window of a chapel The book provides seven engravings and an extensive appendix of Latin documents (pp. 225-249).
