Ranulf II earl of Chester has long been studied as a typical 'Anarchy baron'. Recent investigations, however, have suggested that the principle of his policy was strongly influenced by the condition of his estates, rather than by the 'national crisis'. This research tries to examine one of the rather neglected aspects of his career, that is, his religious activities. Close examination of charter evidence relating to his monastic foundations and grants, the abbey of Basingwerk in particular, indicates that the political situation of his estates in Normandy and the relationship with North Wales affected his religious activities.
