  1. The object of this little book is to attract the ordinary reader to the subject of English monastic buildings. The author, therefore, has begun with the cloister as the center of daily life, and has put off till towards the end a general sketch of monastic history and an account of the various Orders. The regular canons as well as the monks are included. The life and buildings of the two bodies have so many points in common that it is impossible to treat them separately. Contents: the cloister; eastern, southern, western claustral buildings; abbot’s house; infirmary; outbuildings; the church; the orders; dissolution. Handsomely illustrated.
