*************

Edington Priory in Wiltshire, England, was founded by William Edington, the bishop of Winchester, in 1351 in his home village of Edington. The priory church was consecrated in 1361 and continues in use as the parish church of Saint Mary, Saint Katharine and All Saints.

The site of the monastery, north and northeast of the parish church, is a scheduled ancient monument.^[4] Besides the church, five surviving structures are recognised by Historic England; all except the fishpond are Grade I listed.

Edington is a village and civil parish in Wiltshire, England, about 4 miles (6 km) east-northeast of Westbury. The village lies under the north slope of Salisbury Plain and the parish extends south onto the Plain.

Tinhead is the former name of the eastern half of present-day Edington, towards Coulston along the B3098 Westbury – Market Lavington road. Tinhead is labelled on the Ordnance Survey map of 1945^[2] but not on the 1958 map.^[3] Today the combined settlement is Edington and the name survives only in Tinhead Hill and Tinhead Lane.
