A pretty cool ride

The priory is located in the immediate vicinity of the village of Saint-Philbert-sur-Risle, not far from the Risle river. The wheel is visible by taking the path on the side.

Founded in the 11th century by Robert de Montfort, the site was first erected as a collegiate church before becoming a priory in the 12th century. All his rights were then exercised by the Abbey of Bec and the vicar of Saint-Philbert served the chapel adjoining the parish church. Today, the Priory is communal property and only vestiges of the surrounding walls remain with a beautiful portal, a dovecote-bread oven and a perfectly restored Norman-style building.

In the courtyard of the old priory just behind the church, this magnificent mill wheel is easily accessible. We take advantage of supplies for a photo break. A strange cavity dug under the road from which springs a spring.
