Excerpt: Lancaster Priory - It is likely that a Roman church was on the site around 200. In 1912 excavations revealed a wall beneath the present chancel area which may be from this time. It is known that a church existed on the site from 630 and a small Saxon doorway has been exposed in the west wall of the present nave. In 1094 Roger de Poitou established a Benedictine priory, the church being dedicated to St Mary, as a cell of the Abbey of Saint Martin of Seez in Normandy, France. Around 1360 the nave was widened to about 49 feet (15 m). In 1431 the church was transferred from Seez to Syon Abbey near London, and following this there was a major reconstruction in Perpendicular style. In 1539 the monastic institution was abolished by Henry VIII and the following year the priory became a parish church. In 1753 the bells were removed from the tower because it was dangerous. Henry Sephton was commissioned to demolish and rebuild the tower. In 1872 the old organ was replaced by a new one in the north aisle, and a choir vestry was built to the north of the church. In 1887 a peal of new bells, donated by James Williamson, was rung for the first time and in 1894 a clergy vestry was built adjacent to the choir vestry. A south porch designed by Austin and Paley was added in 1903 and in the same year an outer north aisle with a polygonal apse was built. This aisle forms the memorial chapel to the King's Own Royal Lancaster...More: http: //booksllc.net/?id=17194837We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
