Arches

Founded in 1132

This mighty Abbey stands

Although missing some features

It still looks pretty grand

Aelred had been a steward

In David the firsts Scottish household

But at Rievaulx he rose to become Abbot

And died at 57 years old

—

Work continued under Abbot Silvanus,

With an extension of the abbey church at this time

Providing a magnificent setting

For the now, Saint Aelred’s shrine

—

Severe financial problems followed,

and a cash crisis caused a resignation.

In 1538 Rievaulx Abbey was shut

During Henry VIIIs religious reformation
