More about this scene
The present church of St John's occupies the nave of the former priory; the choir and chancel were destroyed in 1470 when the central tower collapsed. The north-west tower, rebuilt around 1523, collapsed in 1573 and destroyed the west front. Following the collapse of the north-west tower, a detached belfry was erected on its site; but this too collapsed in 1881 and wrecked the north porch.
