Nice postcard Peter. That church has a fine history. Every stone has been dated and it's original Quarry location. Jimmy Guy the Verger and myself have been doing a lot of in depth research on this church for the last 5 years and we have found a lot not documented elsewhere. There's so much more to do but Jimmy is ill and we've stopped for now. As for the monastery I can tell you there was a structural link now long gone..
