Listed Building record TR 02 SE 83 - ST JOHN'S PRIORY, INCLUDING THE RUINS OF THE PRIORY

Summary

Grade II* listed building. Main construction periods 1066 to 1732. Medieval building: remains of alleged C13th Cistercian priory (prob a grange?). The "Priory", a dependency of Pontigny and extant from circa 1264-1414, and probably a grange rather than a small priory. Some remains of this establishment may still be seen in the Ashford Road, and show some 14th century features, but owing to over-restoration and some fancy additions, it is difficult to decipher.
