BEAU-VALE, a manor in Greasley parish, Notts; 7 miles NW of Nottingham. It belonged anciently to the Cantilupes; and had a Carthusian priory, founded by one of that family in the time of Edward III. Some fragments of the ancient manor-house, and some tottering walls of the priory, connected with the offices of a farmyard, still remain.
