Bradwell Abbey

This might be our last post for a while and our apologies for not posting for several months, but we are currently working on a new blog called Orb Pics and also researching an exciting project involving leylines. Watch this space for further developments. We are also hoping to start up a 2012 group, so as you can see we have not been lazy but occupied elsewhere.

But back to Bradwell Abbey. A friend read an article on Bradwell Abbey and thought we might be interested and she drove us to Milton Keynes and into an industrial area. What a surprise when we came to a beautiful rural site set amidst factories and the main London railway line. A beautiful peaceful site on a beautiful sunny day.

Bradwell Abbey was a Benedictine Priory founded in the early 12th Century. Only the tithe barn, malthouse, bakehouse and the 14th century chapel of St. Mary remain.

On leaving the car park we passed by what used to be the malthouse and other old buildings to a large open area of grass. Strong energies immediately engulfed us. In front of us was a concreted area that had been used as a modern piggery, the energies were seeming to flow towards us making us think we could be in a leyline. We dowsed and picked up a very strong and very wide leyline .

Sian set this photo as her wallpaper on her computer and can pick up the energies just from looking at the photo; Jackie and others can pick them up too.



To the right of this area the old priory fishponds still remain.

Turning to our left we walked across the site with our dowsers to the Abbey foundations which have been marked out. We again found the energies to be very strong, indeed our friend who is not a dowser was able to feel them. We felt these particular energies were not coming from a leyline but from the Abbey itself. Sian did pick up the usual East -West leyline that we find in churches.





Jackie's rods took us to the tiny Chapel of St. Mary and she took this photo of it. Looking on the computer later she noticed an orb on it by the front window. Later we were given permission, with a guide from the visitor centre who opened up the chapel especially for us and we were allowed inside to look at the very rare medieval wall paintings. The chapel had been built round a statue of St. Mary that was originally in the Abbey and was thought to have healing properties. The wall paintings depicted pilgrims coming to be healed. Jackie and our friend could feel energies coming from where the statue had stood.

We intend to go back to see if the strong energies flowing over this site are anything to do with our new project, also to see if they are affected by the railway line and electricity pylons which run along the side of this site.
