Bordesley Abbey was a 12th-century Cistercian abbey founded by Waleran de Beaumont, the Count of Meulan. Empress Matilda laid claim to the patronage of Bordesley once Waleran surrendered to her in about 1141, thus making Bordesley a royal house. Guy de Beauchamp, 10th Earl of Warwick, was buried in the abbey. The abbey was demolished by Henry VIII during the dissolution in 1538. The ruins are now an archaeological site (The Bordesley Abbey Project) and Abbey Visitor Centre displays fascinating artefacts from the site's first archaeological dig in 1864, along with excavated items from more recent digs. The site is open to the public.
