Overview

History & significance

Site of Cookhill Priory and 16th century farmhouse is a scheduled monument in Warwickshire comprising the earthwork remains of a medieval priory and an adjacent early modern farmhouse. The priory, founded in the medieval period, survives as buried archaeological deposits and surface earthworks that indicate the former layout and extent of the religious establishment. A sixteenth-century farmhouse constructed nearby represents later occupation and reuse of land associated with the original monastic site, reflecting the pattern of post-Dissolution adaptation common to many former religious houses in England. The site is of historical importance for understanding both medieval monasticism and the transition to secular land use following the Reformation.
