[2] The site of an Anglo-Saxon minster, Plympton Priory was re-founded as an Augustinian house by Bishop William Warelwast in 1121.
[4] Warelwast was apparently scandalised by the loose living of the existing canons of Plympton, and he closed the house, sending them to a new house in Bosham, West Sussex.
It was the richest monastic house in Devon, and the fourth wealthiest Augustinian house in England and Wales.
