Welcome to Whalley Abbey - Whalley Abbey in the Ribble Valley Standing on the banks of the River Calder, Whalley Abbey has been a focal point for hospitality since the fourteenth century. It began its history as a community of Cistercian monks. The ruins that still stand in the grounds today remind visitors of St. Benedict's rule to receive strangers as if they were Christ himself.
