Cannington Court in the village of Cannington, Somerset, England was built around 1138 as the lay wing of a Benedictine nunnery, founded by Robert de Courcy. It has been designated as a Grade I listed building.〔 The Cannington Nunnery built the adjacent Church of St Mary and survived until the Dissolution of the monasteries in 1536. The nunnery owned significant land in the area.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Priory History )〕 Following the dissolution of the priory the building was bought by Edward Rogers and he made various alterations. These were continued by the Clifford family when they acquired it, particularly in the early 18th century. During the 19th and 20th centuries there has been some internal division.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Images of England )〕 From 1807 to 1835 it was used by a community of Benedictine nuns who had returned to England following the French Revolution. The Court was part of the Somerset Farm Institute, which has now become Brymore School. ==See also== * List of Grade I listed buildings in Sedgemoor Cannington Court is part of the Bridgwater College, Cannington Campus for Land Based Studies, not Brymore School which is a separate entity. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cannington Court」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
