File Park House, Chatteris.jpg thumb 200px An 1847 painting of Park House, Chatteris before its demolition. Elements of the dissolved abbey can be seen in the walls, including Norman arches. Chatteris Abbey in Chatteris , Cambridgeshire was founded as a monastery for Benedictine nuns in 1016 by Ednoth, Bishop of Dorchester historic Bishop of Dorchester . Before 1310 much of the monastery was destroyed by fire. By the middle of the 14th century, some of the local families appear to have been using the nave of the monastic church as their parochial church. Despite being of little value, the abbey survived the first wave of closures during the dissolution, and was finally surrendered to the Kings commissioners in 1538, by which time there were eleven nuns in residence. At this date many families still used the abbey church as parochial but this, unusually, did not save it from demolition, the parishioners being transferred to another church in the area. A range of the cloister buildings survived as part of a mansion known as Park House. This was demolished in 1847 and the site has now completely vanished beneath streets and housing.

Bricstan was a 12th century trainee monk , miracle witness and Chatteris s first known parishioner. His story is chronicled by Hervey le Breton Bishop Hervey , the Bishop of Ely when Chatteris Abbey which was dated around the year 980 was placed under the patronage of the Bishop of Ely by Henry I of England King Henry I in 1131. The legend Bricstan was a free tenant living in Chatteris round about the year 1115. He wanted to become a monk, so he walked to the abbey at Ely, where the Chief Abbott accepted him for training as a monk. However, he was accused of theft, by a rogue who had a grievance against him. The accusations were accepted by the Chief Abbott, and Bricstan was sent to prison in London where he was kept in chains at all times. The legend recounts that one night he had a vision of Saint Etheldreda coming towards him, and as if by a miracle, his chains fell from him and he was shackled no longer. When he awoke from his dream, he discovered that this was indeed true and he was free, of his chains at any rate. Adeliza of Leuven The Queen the second wife of Henry the First heard of the miracle, and she assured herself that he was no rogue or thief and issued a writ of pardon and declared him a free man. ref Revd John Towers, Bricstan Hall?
