Rievaulx Abbey was founded in 1132 and at one time housed over 140 monks. The monks were inspired by Saint Aelred to work hard in transforming the Abbey into a busy hub of commerce and industry. The grounds of the Abbey provided fertile farmland and sites for smelting iron. Today, it offers a haven of peace and relaxation – a perfect opportunity to pause and meditate on the experiences you’ve enjoyed along your walk. Helmsley itself marks the start of the Cleveland Way
