NUNS 1980S ENGLAND

Mother Abbess Rosemary, at St Mary at the Cross, Edgware Abbey an Anglican Benedictine Community. "The large convent house in the background was sold in 2014, we had reduced to 2 Sisters so had to ‘go small’. We still live here, half the property and land was sold, we kept our nursing home Henry Nihill House built in 1991, our chapel and cloisters, and converted the old laundry which was on the back of the cloisters to be our new ‘abbey’ which has made us a lovely modern dwelling, and guest wing for those needing retreat – so we still do all that we did. Revd. Mother Abbess Mary Therese OSB. Edgware, Middlesex, England circa 1989.
