Forde Abbey

Forde Abbey was established in the twelfth Century by Cistercian monks and is situated near Chard in Dorset. At the time of the Dissolution in the fifteenth century, a man called Thomas Chard was abbot at the Abbey and it is his ghost that reputedly haunts Forde. He has been seen on a number of occasions standing by a table in the Great Hall. Newstead Abbey | Beauchief | Bedfordshire | Berkshire | England | Glastonbury | Melrose | Woburn |
