Remains of Edington Priory, Medieval priory remains in Edington, England

The stone walls and architectural elements of the former monastery stand adjacent to the functioning parish church of Saint Mary, Saint Katharine and All Saints.

William of Edington established this religious center in 1351, converting it from a college of chantry priests into a monastic house of the Augustinian Bonhommes order.

The priory church hosts the annual Edington Festival in August, featuring daily services performed by three choirs from British Cathedral and Collegiate institutions.

Visitors can explore the preserved sections of the monastery walls, rector's house, and examine the transition between Decorated and Perpendicular architectural styles.

A medieval conduit head building, located 400 meters southwest of the church, transported water to the monastery through an underground system.
