Closed by King Henry VIII in the 1530s during the Dissolution of the Monasteriesit was granted to Sir John Dudley, 1st Duke of Northumberland, in 1540. Following his execution, the buildings fell into disrepair and became ruinous. In the 18th century, part of the ruins of the church had been used by a tanner, a thread manufacturer, and for grinding glass and polishing steel. The surrounding area became industrialised. The nearby pools were drained and in 1825, when Priory Hall was constructed.
