Once one of the great Cistercian Abbeys of England, today Dore Abbey is used as the Church of the Holy Trinity and St Mary. Founded in 1147, it served the monks who lived and farmed here until the Dissolution of the Monasteries. The building was dissolved in 1536, but bought by local landowner John Scudamore.
