Twyford Abbey is/was not an abbey. Its last use was as a nursing home, run by the Alexian Brothers, a Roman Catholic order. It closed in 1988, and has been slowly decaying since. More information is provided in these links: Twyford Abbey, Twyford Intro.

Much of the building is in a perilous state and parts of the corridors were quite impassable: the floor had rotting wood, holes, and simply wouldn't have taken my weight. So this was by necessity, a partial exploration.

Works of mercy:
