THURGARTON, (Nottinghamshire) on the S. side of Southwell, had a priory, the site and demesne of which at the Diss. were
granted by Hen. VIII. to Will. Cooper, and descended to his posterity down to the R. of Cha. II. but great part of the T.
was granted by that K. to Trinity-Coll. Cambridge; of which society the Coopers have usually held it in lease. Here is a
free chapel.
