Bentley Priory

It was initially a medieval convent or cell of Augustinian Canons in Harrow Weald, at that point in Middlesex. There are no remaining parts of the first cloister, yet it most likely remained close Priory House, off Clamp Hill.

In 1775, Sir John Soane planned an expansive chateau house north of the first monastery, called Bentley Priory, for the rich businessperson James Duberley. This was added to all through the eighteenth and nineteenth hundreds of years by different proprietors. It was altogether stretched out in 1788, again by Sir John Soane, for John Hamilton, first Marquess of Abercorn.

The convent was the last home of the Dowager Queen Adelaide, ruler associate of William IV, before her passing there in 1849. It along these lines filled in as a lodging and young ladies' school before being procured by the Royal Air Force in 1926.
