The abbey escaped suppression as a lesser monastery in 1536, but was finally suppressed on the 14th Jan 1540, when there were 15 canons;  13 of these were still receiving pensions in 1553  (KNOWLES).  The abbot received a pension of £40 per year (COLVIN).

The abbey’s lands were sold to Sir Thomas Wharton, the governor of Carlisle;  in 1729 they were purchased by Richard Lowther.    There is a Buck drawing of 1739 and a pen drawing of 1859.  It was excavated by St John Hope (COLVIN) in 1888 (CLAPHAM).  In 1948 Lancelot Edward Lowthe,r 6th earl of Lonsdal,e gave it to the state (COLVIN).

Most of the church and the buildings round the cloister stand a few feet high.  The 15th century tower still stands.  See Cumb. and Westmorland Arch. Soc. Trans. x, p. 286 (CLAPHAM).
