Priory Cottages (formerly Steventon Priory) is a 14th-century manor house and former monastic grange which had the status of a priory at Steventon in the English county of Oxfordshire (formerly Berkshire).King Henry I gave the manor of Steventon to the priory of Notre-Dame de Bonne-Nouvelle in Rouen a cell of the Abbey of Bec in Normandy. It therefore became a cell of Bec and was given the status of a priory. However a priory church and associated buildings were never built there.
