Luffield Priory
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Luffield Priory was a monastic house in Buckinghamshire and Northamptonshire, England, founded by Robert de Beaumont, 1st Earl of Leicester between 1118 and 1135, and dissolved 1494.[1]
Though the vast majority of the priory's land and buildings were in Buckinghamshire, the church itself stood in Northamptonshire; consequently it was the Archdeacon of Northampton who inducted Priors.
