	Margam Abbey - A Brief History (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		In 1147 Robert Consul, Earl of Gloucester, granted the French abbey of Clairvaux all the land between the rivers Afan and Kenfig for the purpose of founding a daughter house.
		In 1336, when there were thirty-eight monks and forty lay brethren in the abbey, the abbot bitterly complained that it could not pay its debts owing to the high mortality among its livestock, sand invasions, and frequent attacks made by its enemies: costly litigation with other abbeys and plagues also added to its troubles.
		It is extremely fortunate that Margam shares this distinction with Holme Cultram and Abbey Dore, for the present church constitutes the major portion of the former monastic nave.
