- The_Priory_Trust abstract "The Priory Trust is a registered charity that is split into three sections.The First Section is a Heritage Centre which is a restored Victorian building which opened as a Wesleyan church in 1888 and is now known as "St Katherine's - 900 years of history". The building stands on the side of a medieval hospital and priory alongside a road which has been a major route for two thousand years or more. The site has a rich cultural heritage and a wealth of stories.The Romans arrived in Lincoln c. AD 50–60. The road which passed outside St Katherine's was known as the Fosse Way. It was a Roman military road that linked Lincoln (Lindum Colonia) with Exeter (Isca Dumnoniorum) and Leicester (Ratae Coritanorum). Lincoln was an important meeting place as the Fosse Way joined Ermine Street not far from St Katherine's. Thousands of Roman legionaries, traders and citizens must have passed this site travelling in and out of the city which replaced the fortress in the late 1st century with the withdrawal of Roman troops from Britain.Following the collapse of the Roman settlement, Germanic Anglo Saxons settled in the region. Many were farmers and lived in small settlements throughout the area. It was following the invasion of the Vikings from across the north sea in the late 9th century that Lincoln flourished as an urban centre.The Vikings developed Lincoln into an important trading centre with national and international trading links. Craftspeople settled along the route from what is now St Catherine's into the city. This area became known as Wigford. It has continued to be an important trading centre to the present day.Following the Norman conquest in 1066, Lincoln entered a period of construction in stone on a large scale. Building work on Lincoln Castle began in 1068, followed by the Cathedral from 1072 to 1075. The city continued to thrive with its increased administrative and ecclesiastical importance. Lincoln was the regional capital and one of the five most important cities in the realm of King William I. Historic and archaeological evidence indicate the Lincoln continued to prosper during the high medieval period. The Southern boundary to the city was established during the 11th century and was later provided with a stone wall linking two gateways, Great Bargate and Little Bargate.The hospital of the Holy Sepulchre was constructed outside the city walls by c.1100. The Gilbertine Order was charged with caring for the sick and for orphans and the hospital later became part of the Gilbertine Priory of St Katherine. In the early 12th century, the hospital of the Holy Innocents or the Malandry was developed. This was as hospital for lepers located south of Little Bargate.In the Bargate area there was a market area (Swine Green) that would have been a hive of activity with people and goods entering and leaving medieval Lincoln.This is the setting where the Gilbertine Priory of St Katherine stood and where our story takes place.".
