Notes:


It was exactly in the year 1200 that Madoc, Lord of Bromfield, at the time when Prince Llewellyn was contending with King John, founded this monastic house in a deep hollow, already called the Valley of the Cross, from a monumental cross which stood there previously, and stands theire still [1875], under the name of Eliseg’s Pillar.” (p. 40)

“The conventual buildings [...] on the South side of the church, have been turned into farm-buildings: and it is difficult to discriminate their exact arrangement” (p. 41)
