Cartmel Priory is the
parish church of
Cartmel,
Cumbria (formerly in
Lancashire). The
priory was founded in 1190 by
William Marshal, later 1st
Earl of Pembroke for the
Augustinian Canons and dedicated to
Saint Mary the Virgin and
Saint Michael. It was first colonised by a
Prior and twelve monks from
Bradenstoke Priory in
Wiltshire.
Of the monastic buildings the priory church and a gatehouse survive.
