Guildford Black Friary

A house of Dominican friars was founded by right in Guildford by Queen Eleanor of Provence (died 1272), at some time after the death of her husband Henry III, however also received great timbers and money until the end of that century to enable a large construction, in wood and stone. This included £100 (if loose estimates for the year 1323 are taken as accurate, equivalent to £55,672 in 2014) and timber from John de Westpurle. The friary was on the east bank of the river, north of the High Street at the end of the present Friary Street.
