Barnwell Priory
From Wikipedia, the free
encyclopedia
The Cellarer's Chequer, part of the old Barnwell
Priory.
Barnwell Priory was an Augustinian priory at Barnwell in Cambridgeshire, founded as a house of Canons Regular. Only one 13th century claustral building remains.[1]
The priory was home to the Barnwell chronicler, an anonymous chronicler who wrote about the reign of King John.
