This is simply a very beautifil park and monastic ruins, located just outside of the decaying remnants of Dudley's mostly closed town centre. A very pleasant surprise.

Owner description:
Priory Park in Dudley takes its name from the Old Priory of St James's.The ruins are from the Cluniac Priory and are the picturesque feature in the grounds of the park. The Priory was first founded by the Lord of Dudley, Gervase Paganell, in the 12th Century, and was closed by the infamous Henry VIII in the 1530's. The pools near The Priory were drained when Priory Hall was built in 1825. During the 1930’s, The Priory were restored to their current form, and the grounds became a park.

Built around 1170 the priory was built with locally mined limestone. Now unfortunately just ruins but still makes a focal point to a visit at Priory Park. If you visit on a Saturday you will almost certainly see a wedding or two having their photographs taken here. The gardens are well maintained and include a rose garden and lily pond....
