Description

Priory House is a building dating to 1763, constructed or improved at that time by Gustavus Brander, an early curator of the British Museum. It is built of red brick with grey brick headers, features an eaves cornice, and has a tiled roof. The house is two storeys high with one dormer window. It has six windows in total, including a bay window positioned off-centre. The windows are sash windows, with bars on the first floor. A three-window addition exists to the east. The former King of France, Louis Philippe, resided here for a period from 1807 during his first exile in England, following the French Revolution. Priory House forms a group with Priory Cottage, The Priory, the Priory Ruins, and Christchurch Priory Church.
