Description

The Priory is a building dating from the early to mid 19th century, located on the east side of Church Way in Weston Favell. It is constructed of coursed rubble with a Welsh slated roof and has two storeys. The building features casement windows with glazing bars, some of which are pointed arched, set in cement rendered reveals and surrounds. There are dripmoulds on the south elevation, and the main entrance is a pointed arched door located on the south side. The Priory and the Gazebo are considered to form a group.
