Leeds Priory
Leeds Priory, also known as Leeds Abbey was a priory in Leeds, Kent, England that was founded in 1119 and dissolved in 1539. A mansion was later built on the site of the priory, it was demolished in the late 18th century. The site of the former priory is a scheduled monument.
==Description==
The original priory church was built in the Norman style. Materials used in the construction were Kentish Ragstone, with Caen stone corners. It had a vaulted porch, similar to that to be seen today at Snettisham church, Norfolk. In the 1320s, the nave was rebuilt, and the north transept was enlarged in the Decorated style. The south transept may have been rebuilt at this time. At a later date, probably in the late 1380s or early 1390s, the presbytery was replaced. This was a reversal of the normal process, where the presbytery was rebuilt before the nave and transepts. A probable cause was the sharply rising ground immediately east of the church presenting a barrier to extension. The chapter house adjoined the south transept, it was built c. 1160.
The main church formed the northern part of the priory, with ranges to the east, west, and south. The warming house was probably in the south range. The kitchen was adjoining the south range.
