CROMALL-ABBOTS, (Gloucestershire) near Acton and the r. Frome, was given to the mon. of St. Austin in Bristol, by the Ld.
Berkley, in 1148. On Anchorite's-Hill here are the ruins of a cell, said to have been the residence of the anchorite who
was consulted by the monks of Bangor, when they went to meet Austin the monk, who was sent to convert the Saxons. Not very
long ago a chequered pavement was discovered here; and here was lately the seat of Mrs. Allen.
