Combwell Priory was a priory near Bedgebury Cross about 10 miles southeast of Tunbridge Wells in Kent, England.
History
This is a Grade II listed building.[1] It was founded as a Premonstratensian abbey by Robert de Thurnham in the reign of Henry II but became an Augustinian priory in 1220.[1] It was suppressed in the Dissolution of the Monasteries and on 20 November 1537 was granted to Thomas Culpeper,[1][2] becoming the mansion house of branches of the Culpepper and later Campion families. After 1657 little remained of either the abbey or the later house.[1] Nothing of the original building remains standing although the current private home was built using some of the original building materials.[1]
