               The abbeys of St. Stephen and Holy Trinity were created in response to the papal recognition of       
                                    King William I of England and Matilda of Flanders' marriage in 1059.

William I and Matilda's son, King William II of England, granted the abbey the manor of   
Horstead, in Norfolk, where the Horstead Abbey was established by the order.
