A Derelict Farm with History

Image: © Martin Dawes Taken: 21 Mar 2012

A priory for Augustinian canons was founded at Cottingham in 1320 and transferred to this site in 1326. Nothing survives, although the farmhouse incorporates material from the priory. The farm has been derelict for at least 20 years to my knowledge.
