1840s College Dissolution Dover Martin Prep Priory Tours
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the St Martins Priory in Dover, Kent, which has a rich history dating back to the 18th century. Originally a priory dedicated to Saint Martin of Tours, this historic building was repurposed as a farm after the dissolution of monasteries in England.
In the 1870s, part of the priory was transformed into the library of Dover College Prep School, adding another chapter to its storied past. The Gate house now stands as a testament to both its medieval origins and its more recent educational use.
The image captures the essence of centuries gone by, with its imposing architecture and lush surroundings. It is a reminder of the enduring legacy left behind by those who once called this place home.
As you gaze upon this print from Mary Evans Picture Library, you can't help but feel transported back in time to an era filled with intrigue and mystery. The intricate details of the building's facade and surrounding landscape are sure to spark your imagination and leave you yearning for more knowledge about this fascinating piece of history.
