Sneinton St StephenList of Incumbents
From at least 1245 the priests were Cluniac monks supplied by Lenton Priory.
After the dissolution of the priory in 1537, there are no records of the priests. St
Mary’s Church survived the fate of the Lenton Priory so it maybe
that St Stephen’s was regarded as a chapel of St Mary’s. From 1596
curates of St Mary’s were carrying out duties at St Stephens.
