Founded towards the end of the 12th Century, Beauchief Abbey’s main tower is still remarkably undiminished. The rest of the Abbey including the cloisters, chapter house, dormitory and refectory is now sadly destroyed apart from the foundations, which are still visible. The attached chapel that was built in the 17th Century using stone remains from the Abbey still holds services today. Beauchief Abbey overlooks Beauchief Municipal Golf Course and Parkbank Wood and should be visited by anyone with an eye for history.
