The Cellarium
Where Monks Stored Stuff
  • Monks working in the Cellarium - © Nash Ford PublishingThe monks stored stuff here.
  • They stored all sorts of everyday things:
    • Food
    • Beer
    • Clothes
    • Bedding
    • Candles
    • Tools
    • Work Equipment
    • Furniture
  • But it was mostly taken up with the storage of grain & other produce from the Abbey's farms.
  • This is where the 'cellar' comes from.
