In the year 878 the Danish 'Great Army' over-ran most of the Kingdom of Wessex including Malmesbury. It is believed the Monastery ceased to function under the Benedictine Rule and was in the care of 'Clerks' until being re-established by Dunstan (Archbishop of Canterbury) during the third quarter of the 10th century.
