Folder: Places
Mount Grace Priory is the best preserved Carthusian charterhouse in England. Founded in 1398 it was the last monastery to be established in Yorkshire before the Reformation. It was closed in 1539 during the dissolution of the monasteries.
The ruins of its guest-house were incorporated into two later houses, a 17th century manor and a larger house of 1900-01.
