}}Edith Weston Priory was a small alien house of Benedictine monks in Edith Weston, Rutland. The French parent house of Abbey of Saint-Georges, Boscherville was founded by Ralf de Tanquerville, chamberlain to William the Conqueror, about the year 1050. By 1114 his son William donated the church and manor at Edith Weston, and a small cell of monks was set up to collect the rents and intercede for the founder's soul.[1][2]

Like all alien houses control (and revenues) passed to the crown in time of war with France. It was during one of these periods that the priory closed. The last Prior was known in 1361, but by 1394 the church and manor had been sold to St. Anne's Priory, Coventry bringing the priory to an end.[1][2]

Pevsner was dismissive about the Priory, saying that Brooke Priory was the only monastery in Rutland as "Edith Weston hardly counts as one".[3]

The earthwork remains of the probable location are now below the waters of Rutland Water.[2]
