This would interest me as well, as would any published editions of visitation records, whether to monasteries 
or parish churches.

I feel I should know this but does anyone know of a convenient list of the English and Welsh abbeys that were exempt from episcopal visitation? I know of complete orders - Cistercian, Cluniac, mendicant, etc but I am interested in the individual houses of non-exempt orders that claimed this exemption. 

I know that Westminster, St Albans and Bury St Edmunds made these claims and think that Glastonbury, Evesham and Waltham may also have done so but I am wondering if there is an absolute list to be found anywhere. All my obvious text books say 'houses such as' or 'including' and I would like a definitive list if one exists. 

many thanks
