Other Comments: While it is certain that there was a Premonstratensian convent called Ecclesia de Vallibus in this Circary, nothing further is known of its whereabouts or duration.  It is theorized that this could be a house which resulted from the breakup of a dual abbey, such as Corneux, but nothing is certain.
