More information : Solarium & West Range. About 10 ft W. of the cloister garth wall are the remains of the E. wall of the west range. The area between the two, now debris filled, was the W. cloister wall. The NE angle of this range adjoined the SW angle of the church. The N. wall is almost entire and with it a large fragment of the E. wall. The exterior face of the N. wall has a large flat central buttress. (1)
The remains are as described in Authy 1 but are in poor repair and the walling has tumbled in places. To the south in the orchard of Abbey Meadows Farm, are two other fragments of walling of the west range, which is centred at ST 1425 1069. (2)
The remains of the West range at ST 14251071 have been consolidated, and are now in good repair. (3) |
