  The Tithe Barn
by Myfanwe
 
 

This fantastic building has a long and fascinating history. It dates back to the 12th century, when it was built to house the tithes (taxes) paid by the local community to the monks of St Mary’s Priory. Over the years it has been used for many different purposes, from a travelling theatre in the 17th century to a carpet warehouse and discotheque in the 20th. It is now part of the St Mary’s Priory Church complex. It houses a food hall, shop, education centre and exhibition.

Address: Monk Street, Abergavenny, NP7 5ND
