Lytham Priory
[3] Lytham, a settlement recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as Lidun, is situated on the Fylde coast, at the mouth of the River Ribble.[1] Between 1189 and 1194, Richard Fitz Roger of Woodplumpton gave the church and his land at Lytham to the monks of Durham Priory for the foundation of a Benedictine cell.[4] As a house dependent on Durham, Lytham Priory was small, with only two or three monks at a time.[5] Following the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the 1530s, the land occupied by Lytham Priory came into the possession of local landowner Cuthbert Clifton who built a house there in the 17th century.You can help Wikipedia by expanding it.This article about a British Christian monastery, abbey, priory or other religious house is a stub.
