Extract

A few years ago my attention was directed to the very interesting Church of Wymondham, Norfolk, and the remains of the abbey adjoining it, with the intention of adding a survey of it to the collection I had already made of Norfolk monastic ruins. Extensive excavations were necessary, and, these involving time and expense, the project was deferred, and will now probably never be carried out.
