Location :
Norfolk
Broadland
Horstead with Stanninghall
Grid Ref : TG2600019000
Summary : Horstead Priory Or Grange
More information : The Manor of Horstead was granted by William II to the Nunnery at
Caen, Normandy. (1)

Messent considered this to be the site of a priory, but Knowles and
Hadcock state, "it would not appear that nuns resided here; the
estate was probably managed by a baliff, possibly a monk using the
title "prior'".

It was dissolved in 1414. (2)
