Aylesford Priory 1

The Pilgrim's Hall at Aylesford Priory, a working Carmelite Monastery on the edge of Aylesford village. It was dissolved along with most other large religious houses during the Dissolution of the Monasteries 1546-1548, and passed into private hands. The Carmelites were able to purchase it in 1949 and re-established it for its original purposes, building a new shrine and refurbishing the other religious centres. This Pilgrim's Hall is one of the original 13th Century sections and is now used as a conference centre.
