White Friars II

White Friars is named after the Carmelite Friars, whose Chester monastery was founded in 1277. Carmelites wore robes that were undyed and a white cloak, hence the 'White Friars'. The monastery was dissolved on the 15th August 1538, on the orders of Henry VIII, and the buildings, gardens and orchards of these and the other Chester monasteries (Black and Grey Friars) were sold to John Cokkes for £356 6s 10d.
