Lanercost Priory near Brampton in Cumbria was founded 1166 by Henry II. When completed in 1220, canons came from the priory in Norfolk, and remained for 370 years until the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1536, by Henry VIII. The building was given to Thomas Dacre of Naworth Castle who converted some of the buildings into private dwellings (now called the Dacre Hall). The rest of the building fell into disrepair. About 1740 it was decided to restore the nave, and use it as a Parish Church. Anthony Salvin, who had done some restoration and building work at Naworth Castle in 1844, was responsible for the Parish Church as it is now. The East window contains some fragments of 16th Century glass removed from the Dacre Hall, the dining room of Sir Thomas Dacre after the dissolution. In the North transept is a monument to Lady Elizabeth Dacre Howard also by Sir J Boehm.
