St
Margaret’s Chelmsford
St
Margaret’s is a Grade II listed building in Margaretting,
Essex in the district of Chelmsford. It was almost completely rebuilt in the
early-mid C15th.
Turvey
Church
Turvey
is now in Bedfordshire. Turvey's Parish Church is called All Saints and has
Saxon origins. It is the largest church in the deanery of Sharnbrook and was in
the Diocese of Lincoln until it was transferred to the Diocese of Ely in 1837.
St
Neots Priory
St
Neots Priory replaced a small Anglo-Saxon monastery at Eynesbury in which were
housed the bones of Saint Neot, a revered Cornish monk who died around 877. The
Priory Centre is located alongside the attractive riverbank of the Great Ouse
in the heart of St. Neots town.
St
Neots Priory was a Benedictine monastery beside the town of St Neots in the
historic county of Huntingdonshire, now a non-metropolitan district in the
English county of Cambridgeshire. A monastery was first founded here in about
974 by Earl Aelric (or Leofric) and his wife Aelfleda (or Ethelfleda), who granted it two hides of land,
part of the manor of Eynesbury, later called the manor of St Neots. Its site is
uncertain, though it may have been where the present parish church stands. It
is said that the relics of the Cornish Saint Neot were obtained from Neotstoke (now St Neot) in Cornwall and brought to the
priory in order that it might have relics to attract pilgrims;
hence the name of the town.
Because
it was an alien priory (i.e., the dependency of a French mother-house)
it suffered difficulties whenever there were hostilities between France and
England, and particularly during the Hundred Years' War. Its property was
continually seized for this reason, until like certain other alien priories it
was eventually given its independence from Bec in 1409 by the
quasi-naturalisation process known as denization.
The
priory was finally seized during the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1539.
After the Dissolution of the Monasteries, the buildings were pulled down.
The
prior of St Neots in 1349 was William de Beaumont (he was elected that year).
