    Beauvale Priory was founded in 1343 by Nicholas de Cantilupe, one of nine priories to be built in England dedicated to the Carthusian Order of monks. The monks lived a silent life here at Beauvale for 200 years until the Dissolution of the Monasteries, when they refused to sign the Oath of Supremacy acknowledging Henry VIII as the head of the Church. Through English Heritage, a specialist team of conservation architects and archaeologists have been working to preserve and consolidate the priory ruins and the gatehouse.
