Founded in 666 by Erkenwald, Bishop of London, for his sister Ethelburga, and for eight centuries a house of royal and noble abbesses who ranked with barons and sat in council. Henry VIII closed it in 1539 and the buildings were quarried away within a decade. The outline is marked out in low walls and gravel in a park beside the parish church, and the only building left is the Curfew Tower of 1460, a gateway with a chapel over it that holds a twelfth-century carving of the crucifixion.
