| 説明 | Lanercost Priory was founded by Robert de Vaux between 1165 and 1174, the most likely date being 1169, to house Augustinian canons.The bulk of the church building dates from the late 13th century, though there is evidence of earlier work. The Priory buildings were constructed, at least in part, from stones derived from Hadrian's Wall, including a number of Roman inscriptions that were built into its fabric.Edward I made several visits to the priory in the latter part of his reign. His last visit was in 1306, travelling in a horse litter owing to age and illness, and accompanied by Queen Margaret of France, his second wife. He arrived at Michaelmas and his stay extended until the following Easter, a duration of 6 monthsIn August 1311, Robert Bruce, King of Scotland, came with his army and made it his headquarters for three days, "committing infinite evils" and imprisoning some canons, though later letting them free. Later in 1346, David II ransacked the buildings and desecrated the church. He "entered the holy place with haughtiness, threw out the vessels of the temple, stole the treasures, broke the doors, took the jewels, and destroyed everything they could lay hands on". As late as 1386, one of the priors was taken prisoner by the Scots and ransomed for a fixed sum of money and four score quarters of corn.Lanercost Priory was dissolved in 1538 by Henry VIII, and the buildings were stripped of their roofs, excepting the church building which continued in use as the parish church. |
