Binham Priory English Heritage

St Mary's Priory, Binham, or Binham Priory, is a ruined Benedictine priory located in the village of Binham in the English county of Norfolk. Today the nave of the much larger priory church has become the Church of St. Mary and the Holy Cross and is still used as a place of worship. The remains of the priory are in the care of English Heritage.[1] The abbey's west face is the first example in England of gothic bar tracery, predating Westminster Abbey by a decade.[2]
