Beckford Nature Reserve

Beckford Priory was a medieval house of Augustinian Canons, historically within Gloucestershire, presently in Worcestershire, England. It was founded in Beckford in or shortly after 1128 as a dependency of the priory of Sainte-Barbe-en-Auge in Normandy. It was taken into the King's hand in 1414 as an alien priory and granted in 1462 to Eton College, but was re-granted by Edward IV to the collegiate church of Fotheringay. In 1547 the college was suppressed (although the church itself continued), and the site passed into lay ownership. A new house, known as Beckford Hall, was built in the 17th century on the former premises (of which only the crypt remains). The house was used in the 20th century as a Roman Catholic college.

Beckford is a small village on the main Cheltenham to Evesham Road, five miles north-east of Tewkesbury, on the Worcestershire—Gloucestershire border. The village straddles the A46 and is one of the villages at the foot of Bredon Hill. The Carrant Brook runs between Beckford and Little Beckford and there was a ford across the brook which gave rise to the original name. An intensive poultry unit and market garden lies to the east of the village. A planning application was made in early 2016 to redevelop this as a retirement settlement with social care facilities. Beckford Nature Reserve lies immediately north of the village.
