 Due to the constraints of the relatively small site, the buildings to the south of the cloisters were extended over the Firbeck Dike (stream). |

View looking east. Beautifully set in a valley landscaped by ‘Capability’ Brown in the 18th Century. Roche Abbey has one of the most complete ground plans of any English Cistercian monastery, laid out as excavated foundations. |
