More about this scene

This priory of Augustinian canons was founded in 1171. The gatehouse of 1320-25 is the only structure that remains. The other side has magnificent flatwork decoration and rows of heraldry. This side of the gateway has a row of flushwork arches above the entrance, and over it is a window flanked by 'windows' in flushwork. In the gable is a flushwork 10-spoked wheel.
