The Priory Barn is a historic, exclusive-use wedding and events venue nestled in the Hertfordshire countryside in Little Wymondley, near Hitchin. Originally founded as a monastery in 1203, the estate features a magnificent, 100-foot-long 16th-century Tithe Barn constructed in 1541 by James Needham, who served as the Master Carpenter to King Henry VIII. Renowned as one of England's finest timber barns, it seamlessly blends rustic Tudor architecture with a contemporary, relaxed atmosphere.
The Tithe Barn is a historically significant Grade II listed Tudor timber-framed barn built in 1541. It was constructed by James Needham , the master carpenter and Surveyor of the King’s Works to King Henry VIII, shortly after the dissolution of the 13th-century Wymondley Priory. Today, it is widely recognized as one of the finest surviving timber barns in England and operates as a prominent wedding and events venue.
The Priory’s historic barn is set within extensive grounds, with an ancient moat on two sides. During the spring and summer months we provide outdoor furniture for guests to enjoy reception drinks and canapés in the landscaped gardens. With the lush greenery and abundance of flowers, the gardens offer a beautiful environment for wedding photographs to be taken. Not only this, but the grounds extend around the barn, offering ample space for garden games, which have become a popular wedding feature in recent years.
