2. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dore_Abbey Dore Abbey is a former Cistercian abbey in the village of Abbey Dore in the Golden Valley, Herefordshire, England. A large part of the original medieval building has been used since the 16th century as the parish church, with remaining parts either now ruined or no longer extant. The abbey was founded in 1147 by Robert fitzHarold of Ewyas, the Lord of Ewyas Harold, possibly on the site of earlier wooden monastic buildings of which no traces remain.
   1. the Herefordshire County Council site has an essay on the abbey, which testifies to the involvement of the Grandisons: “Among the recorded relics was a piece "of the Holy Cross, very beautifully adorned with gold and precious stones" donated by Lord William de Grandison in 1321. Dore's two skilfully carved effigies show how important it was for local barons who were not only buried here but also used the sacristy as a safe-deposit for valuables.”
