Founded in 1203? edit

What is the evidence that it was founded in 1203? There is evidence that the *Abbey* was in existence by 1203, but I do not think there is any evidence dating the foundation of the Priory.— Preceding unsigned comment added by PeterKidd (talkcontribs) 6 March 2009‎

I'm not sure. From what I've read it dates to 'sometime after' the Benedictine monastery was founded. A charter dated to early December 1203 dates the monastery. I'll present things something like that. Hopefully someone with some good sources will come by and clean things up.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 09:42, 16 October 2011 (UTC)Reply
