Sandwell Priory
Sandwell Priory was a small medieval Benedictine monastery house, near West Bromwich, then part of Staffordshire, England. Founded in the 12th century, it had a fairly turbulent history and was dissolved in 1525 – more than a decade before the main Dissolution of the Monasteries under Henry VIII
==Foundation and dedication==
The precise date of the foundation of Sandwell Priory is not known, as the charter does not survive, but it seems that a hermitage stood at the site, next to the well which gives the place its name, for some time before the priory itself was established. The foundation date is generally given as 1190, although it could have been at least ten years earlier. The founder of the priory was William, son of Guy de Offeni. Guy is known to have held West Bromwich around 1140 and was still alive in 1155. William was in charge by 1166 and was succeeded by his son, Richard, by 1212, although he may have survived a little longer.
William was a principal tenant Gervase de Paynel or Pagnell, who held the lordship of Dudley, his grandfather having married Beatrice, the heiress of William Fitz-Ansculf the great territorial magnate who held much of the Midlands after the Norman Conquest. The promotion of monasticism was evidently a shared interest of lord and tenants. When Gervase founded Dudley Priory around the middle of the 12th century as a daughter house to Wenlock Priory, Guy de Offeni, his wife Christiana and son William donated to it the church at Wombourne for the salvation of their own souls.
William established a house of Benedictine monks dedicated to St Mary Magdalene. Gervase's confirmation of William's grants is the main surviving evidence of the foundation and original endowments of Sandwell Priory.
