A brief history of Rushen Abbey

Strawberry & Cream Teas

During the 1900s Rushen Abbey became a popular tourist destination. Visitors enjoyed strawberry and cream teas, strolling around the grounds, and from 1927 onwards dancing on the purpose built dance-floor. Later attractions included a tennis court, a crown green bowling green, a putting green, and a childrens playground.
