The Carmelite friary of Boston was originally founded in 1293, at a site somewhere in Skirbeck (possibly around what is now called White Cross Lane). The friary was moved to this location to the west of the River Witham in 1308, though the friars retained their original land in Skirbeck. The friary stood in this new location until it was surrendered in 1539. A short lane from the High Street led to the extensive site which reached from opposite Doughty Quay, at TF32744380 to the 'opening in Liquorpond Lane'. Another front was in West Street nearly opposite St Lawrence Lane at TF32624384. Nothing remains of the church which stood on the north side of the inner court referred to in 1640. {1}{2}{3}{4}
