Strana 62 - ... and the western gate, erected about the middle of the fourteenth century, with a small portion of the walls, are all that now remain of that magnificent structure, which continued in the possession of abbots and monks for 519 years till they were all expelled at the dissolution. The Norman tower was erected during the time of Abbot Baldwin, about 1090, as the principal entrance to the cemetery of St. Edmund, and fronted the west entrance of the Abbey Church.
