The Priory is built on the site of an Augustinian priory founded in about 1235. Very little of the medieval foundation survives, and it is only visible from inside the building. After the dissolution of the monasteries the property was granted to Lord Howard of Effingham in 1541, who erected a house on the site. The house assumed much of its present appearance during extensive rebuilding in about 1770. Edward VII and his mistress were frequent visitors to the Priory in the early 1900s. During 2007/2008 Priory Park was extensively re-modelled, and also maintenance work has been undertaken on the Priory itself.

Newsletter Archive, Introduction and Explanations

Every year the Reigate and Redhill Society publishes three newsletters, both as paper copies, by email and by posting on this site. The newsletters are distributed to most members as paper copies. The exceptions are where a member has specifically requested not to receive a paper copy, and chooses instead to rely on the copy posted on this site. Usually about ten of the most recent newsletters are stored on the site.
Newsletters on this site are in Adobe PDF, also referred to as Adobe or Acrobat format. This format is often used on websites to store documents for display. To display the newsletters, you need to have an up to date version of Adobe Reader (or equivalent) installed on your computer. Most modern computers will have this software already installed.
If when you try and display a newsletter you receive an error message such as "Cannot open file", then you probably haven't got Adobe Reader installed on your computer. Clicking the "Cancel" button will get you out of trouble. If you are comfortable installing software, you can download and install the latest version by following this link. If you are not comfortable doing this, please ask your support specialist to do this for you.
