Tudor life can be experienced first hand in the heart of the Exeter at St Nicholas Priory. Originally part of a medieval priory, the building was later lived in by the wealthy Hurst family.
Adorned with quality replica furniture and painted in the bright colours of the period, the Priory is now presented as their 1602 Elizabethan town house. The display of Elizabethan items from the city’s collection, the addition of modern amenities and new interpretation allows greater access to the Priory and gives a wonderful insight into Tudor life.
