THE PRIORY CENTRE BACKGROUND The Priory Centre as we know it has been at the heart of cultural activities in St Neots for almost five decades. It holds a special place in the hearts and memories of the people in the town. The existing building is constructed on the site of an old Priory that was dissolved in the 1500s and then a brewery that was operational into Victorian times. It was built in the 1980s with the intention of recreating a 19th Century factory look, reflecting elements of its history. The Priory Centre is closely related to the civic authorities, since the Town Council offices are located there. They are planned to be part of the refurbished building too. The existing facilities have been well-used during their lifetime and are ready to be improved and brought up to date. This provides us with a fantastic opportunity to make The Priory Centre even more of an exciting cultural hotspot for the town of St Neots. Our plans are for the venue to continue to host great theatre and shows, be a state-of-the art venue for bespoke weddings and family parties, and to offer businesses a professional environment for their events. It is also essential that it maintains its place at the heart of the community of St Neots.
