This polygon suggests a possible outline for the medieval precinct of Beauchief Abbey. The area includes the entirety of the area that comprises the Scheduled Monument and includes the area to the north - shown as 'The Damm' by Fairbank in the mid 18th century and probably a large fishpond or possible mill dam (Smith 1990 and Merrony:1994) - and the area between the present road, which runs along a causeway to the west of the former pool, and a hollow-way identified to the west of Beauchief Abbey Lane (Merrony: 1994) and shown by Fairbank as the 'Road to Sheffield' from Beauchief Hall. The area includes the west tower and chapel of ease created from the nave of the Abbey Church in the mid 17th century, at around the same time as much of the building was demolished in order to provide the building stone for Beauchief Hall (built in 1671 by Edward Pegge (English Heritage Register of Parks and Gardens, 2003)). Also included are 18th century cottages and the farmstead of Beauchief Abbey Farm. Foundations of parts of the abbey exposed by 20th century excavations are visible. The area also includes fishponds associated with the water management systems of the abbey. Significant legibility of monastic site.
