Bridlington

Bridlington lies on the Yorkshire coast, with an old market town inland from its harbour on the North Sea. Its Augustinian priory was a major religious house, and the town received rights to a market and fair in 1200. During the religious upheavals of Henry VIII's reign, Prior William Woode was executed in 1537 for supporting the Pilgrimage of Grace. The priory was dissolved, but its nave survived as the parish church.
