    Cistercian Abbey Church
    A Cistercian abbey church with a square presbytery and two square chapels in each transept. It has a nave of six bays with alternating square and circular piers (except in the two W bays). The nave is separated from the aisles by thick screen walls of masonry. The E end of the church and conventual buildings were reworked in the 14thc. and 15thc. with the insertion of a new E window, a crossing tower and a richly sculpted cloister.
