The Priory of St Leonard, Stamford, Lincolnshire

The Priory of St Leonard
The Priory of St Leonard
12th century priory ruins founded by the Benedictines of Durham Abbey. The existing priory building dates from about 1090, and the impressive West Front was constructed about 1150.

One school of thought suggests that it was built upon the site of the monastery founded by St. Wilfrid in 658. If true, it might claim to be the most ancient religious house in Lincolnshire.
