Christchurch Priory and Local Area

Architecture and Built Environment
Walk Leader
Barry Senior Hon FRPS
Saturday, March 2, 2024 - 11:30
Capacity
10

Christchurch Priory has a wealth of stained glass including the west and east ends. The ceiling vaulting to the Great Quire is impressive as are the 39 misericords which are in surprisingly good condition and several are accessible to photograph.

Tripods are not allowed but the Priory, having large windows to the Great Quire, is not as dark as many churches.

The Priory Tea Rooms serve snacks and light lunches. There are also toilet facilities.

The area around the Priory includes the Bandstand in the Harbour area, the Town Bridge, ruins of the Constable House, the Castle  and a small part of a former Mausoleum.

Accessibility

The Chancel is accessible by wheelchair but many areas involves steps including the Great Quire so not wheelchair friendly for photography.
