A better way to "short circuit" is just to add a 

RewriteRule  .*abbey.*    -   [L]

before the existing rule. This keeps the URL unchanged.

If your apache is > 2.0.51 what happens when a user requests a URL not
ending in a slash that refers to a directory is that apache sends a
redirect to the correct location, wiith a slash.
(see docs for mod_dir)

It will probably not be the rewrite rules, as you made them so that
nothing is done to the incoming URL when it contains the word abbey.
