Great Bricett

The manor of Great Bricett along with the priory of St Leonard at Bricett was part of the original endowment granted to the College at its Foundation by Henry VI in 1444.  The lands were eventually sold by the College in 1921.

Kersey

Kersey priory in Suffolk was granted to the College by Sir Henry Grey, Lord Powis, in 1447. Related lands in Kersey were granted by Henry VI almost simultaneously, including Borehouse and Boxford Mill which had formerly belonged to Kersey priory.
