Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday evenings are also times people can come to sit at 7.30pm but it is likewise suggested you phone before coming to check someone is in.
In addition to these scheduled events, the Priory is open Tuesday to Saturday from 9am to 9pm (except Thursday afternoon) as a quiet place of refuge where people can drop in to meditate in the meditation hall, sit and read a book from our (small) library, simply enjoy the peace of the Priory and its garden for quiet contemplation or offer help with the day to day work involved in maintaining the Priory. It is advisable to phone beforehand to check there will be someone here to let you in.
