Lanercost was dissolved in 1537 during the Reformation of Henry VIII and converted into a grand residence under the ownership of Thomas Dacre. The nave aisle was retained for parish use. During the 18th century, the house was abandoned while the whole nave of the priory church was re-roofed and restored.
The graveyard situated to the northern and eastern aspects of the priory is the final resting place for many local notables including the Howard and Dacre families. Famous 19th Century physician Thomas Addison is buried here and more recently, Chinese artist Li Yuan Chia was interred in 1994.
