Felley Priory, Augustinian priory in Nottinghamshire, United Kingdom.
The 16th-century house incorporates elements of the original monastery, including four semi-circular columns now serving as entrance gateposts.
Ralph Brito established the priory in 1156 on the site of a former hermitage, which remained under Worksop Priory control until gaining independence in 1260.
Maria Chaworth-Musters created the gardens in 1974, introducing rare plant varieties and establishing a tradition of horticultural excellence maintained by her granddaughter Michelle Upchurch.
The gardens feature a tea room, plant nursery, and multiple seasonal displays including daffodils, tulips, magnolias, and hellebores throughout spring and summer months.
The Tudor walls of the rose garden contain numerous heritage varieties, while the original medieval stew pond remains visible beyond the lower garden boundary.
