Christchurch, The Priory 1900

More about this scene
The Church, seen across the combined waters of the Avon and Stour on their way to the sea, is a commanding feature of the scenery. Roger Flambard, the Bishop of Durham and the king`s trusted adviser, began this largely Norman building towards the end of the 11th century. After his death in 1128, further construction was undertaken in the 13th and 14th centuries, culminating in the building of the west tower in the 15th century. In the Dissolution of the monasteries by Henry VIII, the Priory was destroyed, but the church was handed over to the parish.
