About
Pamber Priory stands on its own in the fields at Pamber End, the surviving church of a priory founded in the reign of Henry I by Henry de Port as a cell of the abbey of St Vigor at Cerisy, in Normandy. As an alien priory it was suppressed in 1446, and it later passed to Queen's College, Oxford, who are patrons still and restored it in 1843 and 1936. It is listed Grade I. It is a working church in the benefice of the Sherbornes with Pamber, with Holy Communion on the fourth Tuesday of most months, and there are no toilets.
