Long Bennington Priory
Long Bennington Priory was a priory in Lincolnshire, England. The church at Long Bennington was granted by Ralf de Fougères, to the Cistercian abbey of Savigny in 1163, But it seems that the priory did not come into existence until around the end of the twelfth century. There is mention of a warden or keeper of the house, appointed from Savigny, on the Patent Rolls of 1319 and 1323. It is believed there was only one monk in residence there.
