About

Langdon Abbey is a abbey in south east. Established 1101. (Abbey in Kent, England from c. 1192 to 1535.) Wikipedia notes: "Langdon Abbey was a Premonstratensian abbey near West Langdon, Kent, founded in about 1192 and dissolved in 1535, reportedly the first religious house to be dissolved by Henry VIII. The visible remains of the abbey are now confined to the extensive cellaring below the 16th-century house that occupies its site and small remains of a 17th-century ice house.".
