Rowe's paper presented at the Association's July1877 Kingsbridge meeting focuses on Newenham Abbey near Axminster. The land on which the abbey was built was granted by William de Mohun for its founding in January 1246. Its foundation charter was witnessed by Richard, Bishop of Exeter. Newenham was closed during Henry's Dissolution. Its mother house was Beaulieu Abbey. The Appendix provides a list of the Abbots from 1246 to 1539.
