Wetheral Priory Gatehouse
-
Description
"Dating from the early 15th century, this is the only building that survives intact from a small Benedictine Priory established at Wetheral in 1106. After the dissolution of the monasteries by Henry VIII the gatehouse was used as a vicarage for a couple of centuries, and then as a hayloft. The gatehouse is now in the care of English Heritage - their website gives historical information and a description of the building http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/daysout/properties/wetheral-priory-gatehouse/history-and-research/ ."
