From the Wikipedia article

The Holy Sepulchre Priory was a medieval monastic house in Thetford, Norfolk. The ruins of the nave of the priory's 14th-century church are the only surviving remains in England of a priory of Canons of the Holy Sepulchre, who followed the Rule of Saint Augustine and aided pilgrims to Christ's tomb. It was later used as a barn, and is a Grade I listed building.
