Bourne Abbey, Medieval abbey and parish church in Bourne, England
The church features two ancient nave arcades and maintains its original architectural elements from the Norman period of construction.
Baldwin FitzGilbert de Clare established Bourne Abbey through a charter in 1138, designating it for up to 14 canons of the Arrouaisian order.
The church holds regular Anglican services and functions as the primary religious center for the Bourne community through varied activities.
The church building stands at Church Walk, Bourne, Lincolnshire PE10 9UQ and remains open daily for prayer and general visits.
The literary work 'The Ormulum', written near 1175, demonstrates the connection between Bourne Abbey and the development of Middle English.
