	English Priories - Tynemouth Priory
		Having to maintain a priory, providing suitable accommodation and hospitality for many Royal parties, was always a costly business but at Tynemouth Priory the priors were also responsible for the upkeep of the castle and the garrison.
		Perhaps the most notable feature of the buildings at Tynemouth Priory is the thickness of its walls, presumably because of its location and the fact that it was used as much as a fortress as a religious house.
		Certainly the location of Tynemouth Priory could not be described as picturesque, surrounded by remnants of military defences and ugly concrete piers that were erected to prevent coastal erosion, but it is definitely rugged and imposing.
