Furness Abbey

Furness Abbey is a Cistercian monastery situated in the Furness region of Cumbria. Founded in 1123 by Stephen, Count of Blois, the monastery was one of the richest and grandest Cistercian Abbeys. It now lies in ruins and is a popular tourist attraction, lying on the Cistercian Way - an ancient walk popular with tourists, which used to link the Abbey with the town of Dalton-in-Furness.
