The priory was founded in the 12th century, but the Perpendicular features of the present church date from a 1480s rebuilding by Bishop Alcock of Worcester after he visited the priory to investigate its poor state.
Little Malvern, Worcestershire
Although a sandstone tower and chancel are the only remaining parts of the priory church here, they make an imposing building, set against a wooded slope of the Malvern Hills, with the Severn valley away to the east.
The exceptional east window still has most of the glass that was installed at that time to commemorate the church's restoration. It depicts members of the family of King Edward IV and Elizabeth Woodville, reflecting Bishop Alcock's royal appointments: he was president of the royal council and Chancellor of England. Other medieval work that survives in the priory includes locally made tiles, the choir stalls and screen, and some re-set roof bosses.
