A Carthusian priory founded in 1398 by Thomas de Holand, Earl of Kent and Duke of Surrey. Dissolved in 1539. The best-preserved of the nine Carthusian monasteries in England. One cell has been fully reconstructed. Each monk had an individual cell with garden and running water. Managed by English Heritage.
