Excerpt from The Spirit and Mission of the Cistercian Order: Comprising the Life of S. Robert of Newminster, and the Life of S. Robert of Knaresborough; With an Account of the Foundation of Fountains Abbey S. Robert was born at Gargrave, near Skipton, in Craven, in the diocese Of York, towards the end of the eleventh century.
