| Notes / History | This fine model of Merton Priory was made for Merton Historical Society by Mr. J H Burchett, chief architect of Merton & Morden Urban District Council. It featured in a Civic Week exhibition staged in May 1962. For many years the model has been on display at Wandle Industrial Museum, located next to Vestry Hall on London Road, Mitcham. It is now due to be displayed in the Merton Priory visitor centre situated below Merantun Way, Colliers Wood. The centre houses the foundations of the priory chapter house, plus a range of displays on the history of Merton Priory and the surrounding area. |
