Premonstratensian house founded 1154. Only part standing above ground is the NW pier of the crossing with a short length of wall between the nave and the N transept. This has nice c13 detail. The remainder of the site is unencumbered, being rough pasture, and it is possible that the whole ground could be recovered. No record can be found of any excavation.
Large area of earthworks and the NW pier and a short length of wall still standing; decoration on the wall is very similar to that in Southwell Minster chapter house. Other pieces of medieval masonry can be seen reused in the walls of the nearby cottage and its out-buildings.
Cropmark in foreground could be part of the original foortprint of the Priory.

The western scheduled area consists of four bowl barrows (maximum extent 130m by 70m). It is probable that all four mounds are encircled by ditches which survive as buried features, although no trace of these are visible on the surface.
The eastern scheduled area (300m to the east) includes 11 round barrows of varying type. These earthworks are marked by circular areas of lighter sandy soil, some of them still slightly mounded, which are visible from the ground and from the air. The mounds were encircled by ditches which have become infilled but survive as buried features.
