(NY 4000 7588) Site of Priory (NR) (Augustinian)
OS 6" map (1957)
Founded by Turgot de Rossedal temp. David I (1124-53) and subsequently a cell of Jedburgh. Dissolved by Henry VIII in 1544. The Site, 1/2 mile SSE of the parish church, was secularized in 1606, and the buildings demolished before 1620.
Very few pieces of the building are now extant but the sedilia was transferred between 1815-1854 to the present churchyard at NY 394 622.

No trace of the priory survives. The site falls in an arable field. The alleged sedilia now forms part of the Rev. James Donaldson's tomb at NY 3943 7622.
Visited by OS (RD) 18 December 1970.
