White Ladies Priory, Shropshire
White Ladies Priory (or Whiteladies Priory) is a ruined Augustinian priory near Boscobel, Shropshire. The priory was founded in the 12th century and dissolved in 1536, after which a country house was built on the site. This became famous for its role in the escape of Charles II after the Battle of Worcester in 1651. The house is now gone but the remains of the priory's mediæval church remain, under the care of English Heritage. The site is within the council area of Shropshire.
