The abbey had an eventful history: sacked by the Danes, burned down twice, then demolished at the Dissolution.
The north aisle did not escape upheaval after that, being abused by both sides during the 17th century civil war.
The ruined masonry that still stands was the west front of the abbey church; there are still saints in the niches on it. The tower and its porch are from the 15th century.
