Nestling in tranquil countryside alongside the river Derwent, the picturesque ruins of Kirkham Priory still evoke the peaceful order of its Augustinian founders. Visitors can follow the regular routine of a monk’s life, discover the Priory’s connection to Helmsley Castle, enjoy a picnic by the river or find out how order was disturbed for the secret visit of Winston Churchill during World War II.
