Pied wagtail


Christchurch priory. Building was begun in 1094, but a Saxon Minster from the 7th century was demolished to make way for it. The nave and transepts are in the Norman style whilst the great Quire and lady chapel are in the more delicate Perpendicular style.
The Priory has some beautiful stained glass and the sun was shining through leaving coloured patterns on the stone work.


Christchurch also has the remains of a Norman castle and Norman House
