Monument record TR 15 NW 1722 - Poor Priests Hospital Chapel
Summary
Alexander of Gloucester founded the Hospital for Poor Priests in about 1220. After some rebuilding, parts of earlier, late 12th and 13th century stone buildings, still survive within and below the 14th century work. The hospital survived the Dissolution and after 1575 a series of complex conversions and different uses were made of the complex's buildings.
