[St Guthlac](/source/Guthlac_of_Crowland)'s Priory (or the Benedictine Priory of Saints Peter, Paul and Guthlac[1]) was a [Benedictine](/source/Benedictines) priory in [Hereford](/source/Hereford), [England](/source/England). It was originally founded in the early 12th century near the Church of St Guthlac in town. After the church was ruined circa 1143, during [the Anarchy](/source/The_Anarchy), it relocated to a site between the present day Bath Street and Commercial Road at [grid reference](/source/Ordnance_Survey_National_Grid) [SO51534019](https://geohack.toolforge.org/geohack.php?pagename=St_Guthlac%27s_Priory&params=52.057959_N_2.708349_W_region:GB_scale:25000).[2][1]

It was disestablished in 1538 as part of the [Dissolution of the Monasteries](/source/Dissolution_of_the_Monasteries) during the [English Reformation](/source/English_Reformation), and purchased by [John Prise](/source/John_Prise).
