Monument record TR 15 NE 1234 - The Brewhouse, Christchurch Priory

Summary

The Priory's Brewhouse is located within the eastern section of a long rectangular range of building, with a high pitched roof, and a gatehouse on its eastern side. The passage under this gatehouse divides the building into two unequal parts. These are clearly shown on Prior Wibert's Plan of the Priory's Waterworks dated c. 1165, and are thus of Norman date.
