Description
The ruins of the Augustinian Priory are located adjacent to the Church of All Saints in Weybourne. The structure is built from coursed flint and flint rubble. The remains include the tall square central tower, which features semi-circular headed arcading on the upper wall, two gabled arcades in the center, and double splayed oculi on either side. The wall is complete on the south side and partially intact to the east. The east wall has a tall Perpendicular arch leading to the former chancel, supported by round shafts, with the lower part blocked and a small ogee-headed arch below. There is a continuation wall to the east from the northeast angle, which has seven part openings for the former clerestorey, a large blocked arch to the former north transept with a pointed segmental head opening, and a smaller blocked arch to the east with a window opening beyond. The east wall of the former chancel has remnants of stone dressings for double or multiple east windows and fragmental remains of sedilia to the south. Additionally, there are fragmental remains of walls belonging to the cloister and conventual buildings to the north. The site is designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument in Norfolk.
