'Medmenham Abbey near Henley on Thames', 1787. A Cistercian abbey was founded in Medmenham in the 12th century under the ownership of Woburn Abbey. In 1547, at the Dissolution of the Monasteries, the abbey was seized and given to the Moore family and then sold privately to the Duffields. It was while in the possession of the Duffields that the abbey became infamous as the location of The Hellfire Club. [S. Hooper, 1787]
