Maxstoke Priory is a Augustinian priory founded in the fourteenth century in Warwickshire, established by John de Dibdale in 1336. The site retains substantial remains including the priory church, domestic ranges, and a notable moated enclosure that formerly protected the monastic settlement. The complex demonstrates the typical layout of a minor English priory with its buildings arranged around a central precinct, defended by the water-filled moat that still defines its boundary. Following the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the sixteenth century, parts of the priory were converted to domestic use, and the site remained in private ownership, contributing to the preservation of its standing masonry and archaeological deposits.
