Event Description
A half-hour tour of the Priory with a focus on the medieval tiles and misericords. The tour is led by Faith Renger who is one of the Priory guides.
The Priory was begun in 1085 when a small group of Benedictine monks affiliated to Westminster Abbey were located in Malvern to be the stewards of the Royal Malvern Chase.
In the second half of the 15th century, the building was extended to include wider aisles, the chancel and a number of outstanding windows, along with a larger tower.
The 15th century enhancement included a unique display of tiles made in the area and thirty monks’ stalls (misericords).
For this event, it is advisable to book your free place online in advance.
