Dore Abbey is a superb medieval church at the southern end of Herefordshire's Golden Valley that once served as the church of a Cistercian abbey. The abbey was founded in 1147 by monks from Morimond in France - the only daughter house ever founded by Morimond. The church was begun in 1175 and consecrated one century later.
