Great Malvern Priory is a former Benedictine priory church whose architecture, stained glass, and monuments preserve a long and complex record of religious life from the Norman period to the present. Founded in the later eleventh century as a dependent cell of Worcester Cathedral Priory, the site occupies a position of early importance within the Norman monastic expansion in western England.
A substantial body of medieval stained glass survives at Great Malvern Priory, although its condition and completeness vary considerably from window to window. Several major fifteenth-century windows remain largely intact, most notably the Magnificat Window, the Founder’s Window, and the glazing of the Lady Chapel. Elsewhere, survival is more fragmentary: the great east window, though once a dominant feature of the church, now survives largely in dispersed panels and fragments rather than as a complete scheme.
