  Baxterwood Priory - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Baxterwood Priory is a monastery, originally founded at Haswell, Durham, England by Henry Pudsey, a son of Bishop Pudsey, in the latter part of the 12th century.
It was known as the "New Place upon the Browney" and dedicated to the Virgin Mary.
It was later appropriated by the nearby Benedictine monks of Durham Cathedral and became a Benedictine Priory, its lands and vills being conferred on Finchale Priory.

Citation: 'House of Austin canons: Priory of Baxterwood', A History of the County of Durham: Volume 2 (1907), p.
Baxterwood being so close to Durham, and the canons being of a different order from the monks of the priory, it was not to be expected that peace should long prevail.

A group of Benedictine monks, governed from Ely, moved here from their waterlogged monastery at Elmeney (a vanished settlement about a mile to the northeast) in the 1150s, at the suggestion of Duke Conan IV of Britanny.
She gave the remainder of the Priory to a Franciscan order of nuns, the order of Saint Clare, also known as the Poor Clares, who were moved from their flood-prone Priory in the nearby village of Waterbeach.
Denny Priory was expanded into an Abbey during this period, with comfortable quarters for the Countess above spartan accommodation for the nuns.
