The final stone was laid on the tower on the 24th July 1937, completing thirty-two years work. It was not until December of the following year that the pointing was finished, and the scaffolding removed.Abbot Anscar Vonier with Sir Robert Harvey who donated a peal of fourteen bells to the Abbey in 1910, in memory of his wife, Alida. The necessity for additional accommodation became increasingly apparent so in 1993, the Southgate Retreat Centre was blessed and opened, providing hospitality for groups and individuals who wished to stay at the Abbey. That pint follows some early (and sometimes ill-advised) experiments with bevvy, usually with your pals, at someone's empty or hidden away in a park as far away from a responsible adult (and the polis) as possible.

As a result, the Abbot allowed wine merchants to distribute on behalf of the Abbey. At the same time, the recipe was changed to be less of a patent medicine and more of a medicated wine. [6] I think it holds a unique place in Scotland as it is nostalgic for some people. In the club I work, if people spot it who didn't already know we sell it, they think it's great that they can now buy it in a club or pub. They will always buy one or many just for a laugh.

In the meantime, work was under way to improve the monastery buildings. The Abbot’s Tower had been restored, and a temporary church (now the Chapter House) had been erected next to it. This was opened on the 25th March 1884. Also in 1884, work started on the south wing of the monastery, which was to include the kitchen, refectory, and cloister, mostly paid for by Lord Clifford of Chudleigh.

One of these buildings is the south wing of the Guest Hall, which has survived almost unchanged, and was restored to its original appearance in 1992. Another is the ‘Abbot's Tower’ at the south-western corner of the conventual buildings. This was a series of three small but very well-appointed rooms adjoining the western range. Each room had the luxury of its own fireplace and garderobe en suite, suggesting that the Abbot's Tower was probably for the Abbot's most important guests.
