Overview

History & significance

Llanthony Secunda Priory is a twelfth-century Augustinian priory located near Gloucester, founded as a daughter house of Llanthony Prima in the Vale of Ewyas, Monmouthshire. The priory was established in its Gloucestershire location following difficulties experienced by the mother house, and it subsequently became the more prosperous of the two institutions. The surviving remains include fragmentary stone walls and foundations which testify to its medieval ecclesiastical architecture, though little substantial stonework now stands above ground level. The priory continued as an active religious community until the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the sixteenth century.
