Once an abbey then a private manor after the dissolution of the monasteries. These ruins are a popular site in the area for wedding photographers but anyone with an interest in history would be impressed with these ruins and the history that goes with then. There are many signs of occupation from iron door furniture and remains of floorboards to floor tiles from different eras.

10 min drive or 3.5 mile walk from Hill Head. Great inland place for a picnic when its windy on the coast, nice and safe for kids. First built in the 13th century, Titchfield Abbey in Hampshire was the home of a community of Premonstratensian canons. The canons lived communally, like monks, but also preached and served as priests in the local community. After the Suppression of the Monasteries, Henry VIII gave the abbey to Sir Thomas Wriothesley, Earl of Southampton, who transformed the buildings into a grand Tudor mansion called Place House. The most impressive feature of the abbey today is a grand turreted gatehouse, which was built across the nave of the church.

Interesting abbey ruin situated close to the River Meon. The Titchfield Mil is close by for good food and drink.
