Great Malvern Priory, Medieval church building in Great Malvern, England

The Great Malvern Priory features a central tower similar to Gloucester Cathedral, with Norman and Perpendicular architectural elements throughout its structure.

Established around 1075 as a Benedictine monastery, the priory underwent major restoration work by Sir George Gilbert Scott in 1860 to revive its medieval features.

The priory maintains England's largest collection of 15th-century stained glass windows and medieval floor tiles, displaying exceptional craftsmanship from that period.

The Anglican parish church holds regular services and maintains an active congregation of over 300 members on its parochial council electoral roll.

The building contains carved misericords from the 15th and 16th centuries that depict mythical beasts and seasonal labor scenes with intricate detail.
