Talley Abbey

Dragon-150Talley Abbey (Welsh: Abaty Talyllychau) is a former monastery of the Premonstratensians (“White Canons”) in the village of Talley in Carmarthenshire, Wales, a few miles north of Llandeilo.

The monastery, which was founded by Rhys ap Gruffydd, is in the care of Cadw. In common with Strata Florida Abbey, it was once claimed to be the site of the grave of the medieval Welsh poet Dafydd ap Gwilym, but this is one of the discredited theories of Iolo Morganwg.
