Abbey House, Cirencester
Abbey House, Cirencester was a country house that developed on the site of the former Cirencester Abbey following the dissolution and demolition of the abbey at the Reformation in the 1530s. A dwelling was probably initially made by converting parts of the conventual buildings, but this was replaced in the early C17 by a square house, probably built for Sir William Master MP.
