Legbourne is a village and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. It is situated approximately south-east from the town of Louth. The Greenwich Prime Zero meridian line passes through the village. ==History== The Priory of Legbourne was founded by Robert Fitz Gilbert of Tathwell about 1150, apparently to receive Cistercian nuns, known as "The Nuns of Keddington" (sometimes Haddington). The Priory was officially dissolved in 1536, although it seems it was still occupied by a number of nuns at the time of the Lincolnshire Rising when the nuns were dragged out by the excited mob.〔 The original endowment of the Priory consisted of lands belonging to Robert Fitz Gilberts fee in Tathwell, Legbourne, Hallington, and the churches of Farlesthorpe, Saltfleetby St Peter, Raithby, Hallington, Somercotes, Conisholme, and half that of Legbourne.〔 The site of the priory is in the grounds of Legbourne Abbey, at present a private house, the only visible remains of the original building being earth mounds.〔("Legbourne" ); Louthuk.com.
