Clattercote Priory

Clattercote Priory was a Gilbertine priory in Oxfordshire, England.[1]

It was founded for Gilbertine canons to run a hospital in the mid-twelfth century, possibly by Robert de Chesney.[1] The hospital ceased before 1262. The priory was re-established 1251–1262, later dissolved in 1538, and granted to Thomas Lee around 1559.[1] In the 16th century, the priory fell into disrepair and was later pulled down; a manor house was built on its site in the 17th century.
