Save this place
Coventry’s first cathedral was the church of a Benedictine priory, pulled down at the Dissolution and then lost under the city until archaeologists and Time Team dug it out in 1999. The nave is now laid out as Priory Garden with low walls at pavement level, and two vaulted 13th-century undercrofts survive beneath the visitor centre built over the cloister. The garden is free to wander at any time; the undercrofts open for tours and heritage days. The Carthusian Charterhouse sits a mile south-east.
