Ogbourne Priory

Ogbourne Priory was a priory in Wiltshire, England, from the 12th century until the early 15th.

There may have been a priory building in the 13th century, perhaps attached to the manor house at either Ogbourne St Andrew or Ogbourne St George; both manors belonged to the Benedictine order of Bec Abbey, Normandy. Later the priory existed only as a legal name for the administration of the Bec estates in England. The last Prior of Ogbourne, William de St. Vaast, died in 1404 or 1405 and the properties were dispersed.
