religious and secular men bringing the priory into disrepute. (Page, William, ed. (1974), "Houses of Cistercian nuns: Kirklees Priory") In folklore it is also the final resting place of the legendary Robin Hood.

The stunning west door of St Botolph's Priory in Colchester, which was founded c. 1093. Largely built from recycled Roman bricks, it was dissolved in 1535 and is now a stately ruin. #MedievalMonday

Serpent Cross • Gallen Priory • Offaly

This unusual slab dates to c.8-11th century AD. It has a ringed cross with serpents unfurling from a central whorl to bite one man and three human heads. It may be symbolic of the battle between good and evil

If that is the case, it looks like evil is on top!

A tiny light red door sits at the end of the south transept. If the original priory had a cloister it would have been on this side of the building and it makes sense for it to have extended from the transept

Low 2-stage crossing tower. Louvred semicircular lights to bell stage. Stair turret just visible to right. Transepts and tower are possibly the last remains of the Priory Church. Recessed octagonal spire and parapet are later

BATTLE OF BRITAIN 85: 17th October 1940. An improvement in the weather brought an increase in Luftwaffe activity. Formations of escorted fighter-bombers crossed the coast at 9am, 1pm, 3pm and 4pm. Each of these waves contained around 50 aircraft.

Quire, with north and south chapels, and chancel. St. Andrew's was a C12 priory church but as is often the case this is all a C19 rebuild. The steps are as a result of a resulting floor level change

The so-called Lanercost Cross, Lanercost Priory, north Cumbria was erected to mark the completion of initial building work during 1214CE. Looks like the stone was damaged. The Priory saw turbulent times being close to the border with Scotland.

I have to admire Hopkins' hutzpah. He claims the story (part of the Warbleton Priory screaming skulls legend) was told to him by Rudyard Kipling, who had 'forbade him to mention his name' (he died in 1936). But the tale also appears in Harper's 'Haunted Houses' (1907), so this might just be a fib.
