Join Becki and the Ghosts & Giggles team for an unforgettable night of ghost hunting at Llanthony Secunda Priory. Explore the historic grounds, searching for the mysterious Lady in White, the huddled family, and the lost priors of centuries past.
A Place Steeped in History
Founded in 1136 by Miles de Gloucester, 1st Earl of Hereford, the priory was established after Augustinian canons were forced to flee the original Llanthony Priory in Monmouthshire due to attacks from the local Welsh population. Llanthony Secunda became known for its cheese-making tradition, with records from 1502 showing the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Prior of Llanthony gifting Llanthony Cheese to Elizabeth of York, the wife of Henry VII. Following the Dissolution of the Monasteries, the priory was sold by the Crown to Arthur Porter, whose family lived in parts of the building until 1697, after which it was used as a farmstead.
What remains… and what lurks in the shadows
Today, only fragments of the once-grand priory remain, including the Tithe Barn, Medieval Range, Western Gatehouse, Victorian Farmhouse, and the 16th-century Brick Range. These eerie and atmospheric spaces will be the setting for our paranormal experiments.
Dare to explore alone?
For those feeling brave, there will be opportunities to investigate on your own.
