Wilmington Priory, Benedictine priory in Wilmington, England

The priory consists of a two-story L-shaped house with stone walls, incorporating elements from a 13th-century structure and 14th-century modifications.

Founded in the mid-11th century by Herluin de Conteville, the priory functioned as a grange for Grestain Abbey in Normandy until 1414.

The structure received fortifications in the 14th century, including a portcullis and a three-story drum tower to protect the religious community.

The Landmark Trust manages the property, offering visitors accommodation within this Grade I listed building and scheduled monument.

A vaulted undercroft from the 14th century remains adjacent to the main building, preserving medieval architectural features.
