6. THE PRIORY OF ST. AUGUSTINE, 

 DAVENTRY 



Hugh de Leicester, sheriff of Northampton- 

 shire about the year 1090, placed four Cluniac 

 monks in his church of Preston Capes; lack of 

 water and other inconveniences, including the 

 close proximity of Hugh's castle, rendered the 

 place unsuitable for the establishment of a 

 monastery and caused its removal to Daventry, 

 where, with the permission of his lord, Simon 

 de St. Liz, first earl of Northampton, the founder 

 established a Cluniac priory close to the parish
