Only a crypt remains today of what was once a late 14th century priory belonging to a Carmelite order popularly known as the White Friars because of the white mantles they wore on formal occasions.

Notes:

Grace Chetwood (Chetwode) was a descendant of the House of Anjou-Plantaganet. She also was a descendant of Magna Charta Sureties Saier de Quincy and John de Lacy. Others in her ancestry were the House of Normandy, Kings of Scotland, House of Capet, Kings of France, Carolingians, Emporers of the West, Emporers of the East, Princes of Wales, and Spanish Rulers. From Bulkeley "...Grace Chetwood was descended form an ancient family of Buckinghamshire [Chetwode]...we rely chiefly on the pedigree from the parchment roll which some years ago was in the possession of Sir George Chetwode...She...stemmed from manorial families and it so chances that through her great-grand-mother, Anne Talbot, she descended from many of the great historic families of England, such as the Talbots, the Percys, and the Nevills...Anne Talbot had fourteen legitimate lines of descent from the first Plantagenet King of England."
