Sempringham priory was a Gilbertine priory near the village of Pointon, Lincolnshire. All that remains is the building depicted here, now the parish church of St Andrews. This church is not in a village but is instead surrounded by fields. Until the Dissolution in the 1530s, the church was surrounded by other monastic buildings.
