Llanthony Secunda Priory in Gloucester was once a large and rich Augustinian priory, founded just outside the city walls in 1136. In medieval times the Priory was described as a 'noble house... set about handsomely with pleasure gardens', providing hospitality, learning and employment to its community. Llanthony is now a scheduled ancient monument with Grade I listed buildings and structures set in 5 acres of grounds; a miracle of survival situated next to Gloucester's historic docks. The grounds are open daily for everyone to visit and enjoy. The restored buildings can be hired for meetings, funtions and weddings, and the Llanthony Secunda Priory Trust (a registered charity) hosts a number of events and activities throughout the year.
