Building
Ampleforth dates back to 1802, when Lady Anne Fairfax of Gilling Castle built a lodge for Father Anselm Bolton. This lodge was handed over to his brethen to be their new monastery. A school was opened in 1803, in 1900 the monastic houses became independent Abbeys and the school also began to expand.
