Mount Grace Priory - Present Day

Present Day

The property is now under the care of English Heritage.

Visitors today can see the layout of the whole monastery, including one reconstructed monk's cell, together with the typically small Carthusian chapel and the later house. There is also a museum on the site detailing the history of the priory.

English Heritage currently let the Prior's Lodge as a holiday cottage.

Famous quotes containing the words present and/or day:

    In the present age, alas! our pens are ravished by unlettered authors and unmannered critics, that make a havoc rather than a building, a wilderness rather than a garden. But, alack! what boots it to drop tears upon the preterit?
    Aubrey Beardsley (1872–1898)

    The day after he’d met her, he told me about her. He said she was a cross-section of the American public.
    Orson Welles (1915–1985)
