Although many Anglican conventual buildings are included on the statutory list \u2013 often designed by highly significant and well-known architects &#8211; comparatively few were built for male communities. <strong>Alton Abbey<\/strong> not only housed a community of monks, but gave homes to destitute and retired men from the maritime world on the south coast. The Abbey represents one of the very few rural examples of a substantially intact Nineteenth and early Twentieth century purpose built monasteries in England \u2013 there are others in Wales &#8211; but this was purposefully built in a countryside setting which lends the buildings a romanticism and makes the most of the topography of the site. With the drastic decline and closure of many male Anglican religious communities Alton Abbey has an increased significance in communicating a fast-disappearing aspect of English religious life.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6145\" style=\"width: 503px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6145\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6145\" src=\"https:\/\/www.victoriansociety.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Alton-Abbey-chapel-Photo-Carter-Jonas.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"493\" height=\"322\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.victoriansociety.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Alton-Abbey-chapel-Photo-Carter-Jonas.jpg 493w, https:\/\/www.victoriansociety.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Alton-Abbey-chapel-Photo-Carter-Jonas-300x196.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.victoriansociety.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Alton-Abbey-chapel-Photo-Carter-Jonas-320x209.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 493px) 100vw, 493px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-6145\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Alton Abbey church.
