Classification Historic Building

DescriptionSet amid woodland below the escarpment of the North York Moors and the Cleveland Way National Trail, the ruins of this 14th-century monastery represent the best preserved 'charterhouse' of the 10 Carthusian monasteries in Britain. A reconstructed monk's cell and herb garden offer visitors a glimpse into the daily lives of the medieval residents. The gardens - remodelled in the early 20th century - are now a haven for wildlife, including the famous 'Priory Stoats'.
