This Augustinian priory was founded in 1119-39. It was closed by Henry Vlll in 1538. The red-brick Georgian country house was built in 1777 and is attached to a remnant of the Priory church which now serves as Thurgarton's parish church. If you are lucky you will see various vintage cars parked to the front of the Priory.

The Palace Gardens are a fantastic place to explore and discover our history through living plants. A beautiful landscape set amongst the magnificent ruins of The Archbishop’s Palace is packed with shrubs, flowering plants, mature trees and lawns. Work is underway to develop a new Physic Garden to provide visitors with the opportunity to learn more about the plants that would have been used to treat our medieval ancestors of their various maladies, from a broken heart to the plague. Garden sculptures and literature provide links to the famous ‘Leaves of Southwell’ – the 13th century carved stone leaves in the Minster’s Chapter House. The gardens encourage wildlife through the inclusion of bird boxes, insect hotels and log piles, as well as a several areas of wildflower, ensuring that our beautiful gardens are welcome to humans and wildlife alike.

Excavations, led by Charles Daniels, took place in the summer of 1959. They revealed parts of the Southern and eastern wings of what seemed to be a major villa, constructed around a courtyard. The eastern wing included a substantial bath building of which the cold plunge bath was uncovered. The small section of the south wing that was excavated contained six rooms all decorated with mosaic pavements.

The land, formerly occupied by the Minster School, contains remains of an extensive Roman villa. The school site was initially earmarked for housing development, but was purchased anonymously and then donated as indicated on the plaque.
