Romsey Abbey

Highlight • Religious Site

Romsey Abbey is the largest parish church in Hampshire, and well worth a visit to admire the Norman architecture. The nave was built in the 12th and 13th century and consists of large Norman piers.
Originally, the abbey was a nunnery, setup in the 10th century.

Highlights include 2 saxon roods, a 16th century reredos and a tomb of King Charle's great uncle (Lord Mountbatten of Burma).

There is no charge for admissions and open daily for visitors.
