St Margaret's Convent, Hertfordshire
text:
St Margaret's Convent was a convent of the Benedictine order near Great Gaddesden in Hertfordshire, England. Founded in 1160, it was abolished as a consequence of King Henry VIII's dissolution of the monasteries in the 1530s.
It was also known as The Priory of Ivinghoe, St. Margaret's, in the Wood and Muresley Priory. It was founded by Henry de Blois, Bishop of Winchester. Some accounts point to an earlier foundation by Thomas Becket before 1129. It therefore predated the nearby Ashridge Priory.
