Abingdon Abbey

The Long Gallery at Abingdon Abbey.

Abingdon Abbey (formally Abbey of Saint Mary) was a Benedictine monastery in Abingdon-on-Thames in the modern county of Oxfordshire in the United Kingdom.[1] Situated near to the River Thames, it was founded in c.675 AD and was dedicated to Mary, mother of Jesus.[2] It was disestablished in 1538 during the dissolution of the monasteries. A few physical remnants of the Abbey buildings survive within Abingdon-on-Thames.
