Special Guided Tours of the Priory. Tours start at 6.30pm, last for about three hours and include parts of the Priory not always open to visitors (e.g. Tower, Crypt, Roof Space and Archives).

These tours are not suitable for children under 8.
Pre-booking is essential. Tickets £10.00 per person (including Souvenir Booklet) obtainable from the Head Verger at the Priory.

 

The 2009 tours were very successful and were quickly sold-out therefore you should book as early as possible so that, if necessary, further dates can be organised.

 

Guided Tours

 

Guides can be provided by pre-arrangement through the Vergers to give an organised party a full conducted tour of the church. A charge is made for such a tour, which usually takes about an hour, a further 20 minutes should be added if a Tower/Museum visit is wanted, when available.

 

All guided tours of the Priory must be pre-booked from the Head Verger at the Priory, tel: 01202-485804.
Tower visits are available on most Sunday afternoons, Tuesday mornings, Tuesday afternoons and Friday mornings.
The Museum is open at certain times during the summer season, preferably by appointment
