Historically in Nottinghamshire, since boundary changes in 1989, the priory and village as been in Lincolnshire. HistoryThe priory was founded before 1154.[1] It was home to Premonstratensian canonesses and was one of only two female priories of that order in England (the other being Orford Priory).[2] When it was founded, however, it was initially home to both canons and canonesses. The priory was dedicated to God and St Mary, and its mother-house was Newsham Abbey in Lincolnshire.[2] Pope Nicholas IV's taxation roll records the priory as having an income of £4 13s. The priory was also in control of the church at Thorney, Nottinghamshire, which provided an extra £8 annual income.[2]The priory was given a charter of confirmation by King Edward II in 1318.

The Valor Ecclesiasticus of 1534 records the gross annual value of this small priory as £18 11s. 10d.[2] The priory was dissolved in 1536.[1] On 12 December 1536 the last prioress, Joan Aungewen (or Angevin), was assigned a pension of 7 marks.[2] The site was granted by the Crown to Ralph Jackson in 1537.[2] RemainsThe remains of the monastic buildings are thought to have been incorporated into Manor Farm, which was built on the site; there are, however, no visible architectural remains. The priory chapel was located at the back of the current house and the cemetery was to the east in an area occupied by an orchard. The priory's former fishponds were filled in during the 1960s.[1] Prioresses of Broadholme
