Cistercian Abbeys: TINTERN PARVA
1. Both Tintern and Graiguenamanagh were founded by William Marshal, earl of
Leinster, on land that had been conquered by the English. Thus they both contributed
to
the settlement of the newly conquered territories and became part of the fabric
of the Anglo-Norman lordship of Ireland. R. Stalley, The Cistercian Monasteries
of Ireland (London, 1987), p. 16.
