Imposing edifice! The second image shows a wealth of architectural 
detail - some damaged, some not. I'm guessing the building could be a 
trove of interesting architectural bits.

The Monmouth Rebellion was a late echo of the English Civil War (Wikipedia has 
a good entry about it).

The Puritans' damage was very intentional, all over England. I'll be posting 
some pics soon of Glastonbury Abbey, which Cromwell and his boys utterly 
destroyed (with drawing and quartering the abbot as a diversion).
