Nocton Priory, Medieval priory ruins in Nocton, Lincolnshire, United Kingdom.
The remains of Nocton Priory include earth-covered foundations of a monastic church and raised areas indicating post-dissolution structures on Abbey Hill.
Robert Darcy established Nocton Priory during King Stephen's reign, and it operated until 1536 when Henry VIII ordered the dissolution of monasteries.
The priory site contains medieval fishponds that demonstrate the agricultural and sustainable food practices of religious communities in medieval England.
The archaeological site stands 750 meters northeast of Nocton Wood Houses and maintains visible earthworks for historical research and observation.
Following the dissolution, Sir Henry Stanley transformed the monastery ruins into a house in 1569, which was later abandoned and dismantled.
