Our Lady of England Priory in Storrington, West Sussex, England is the former home of Roman Catholic priests belonging to a Community of Canons Regular of Prémontré, (or 'Premonstratensians') after the place where they were founded in France in 1121. The priests are also known as Norbertines after Norbert of Xanten, the Founder of the order. Because of their white habits, another name for members of the Order is White Canons. The priests follow the Rule of St Augustine. The land the Priory is built on was granted by Henry Fitzalan-Howard, 15th Duke of Norfolk, and the foundation stone of the Priory Church was laid in 1902[1] by Cardinal Bourne, Archbishop of Southwark. The Church houses the Shrine to Our Lady of England, the shrine statue being the work of the Austrian sculptor Ferdinand Stueflesser. The poet Francis Thompson stayed at the Priory after being brought there by Wilfrid and Alice Meynell to recover from opium addiction. He wrote the poem To Daisy during his stay. Also, Hilaire Belloc wrote the poem On Courtesy on 17 May 1908 after visiting the Priory. The first Prior of Storrington Priory was a French White Canon, Father Xavier de Fourvières (born Albert Rieu in 1853 in the Provençal village of Robion (better known today as "Peter Mayle country"). He was one of many French priests exiled from France in the early 1900s - he arrived to settle there in 1903 - following the aggressive acts of separation of Church and State by the French government. Xavier de Fourvières was a renowned writer, poet and charismatic preacher, a member of Frédéric Mistral's famous "Félibrige" movement for the Provençal language. He preached often at the church of Our Lady of France, Leicester Square, London where he was taken ill one day in May 1912, returned to Provence (hoping the sun would secure his restoration) but he died in October 1912 and is buried in his birthplace, Robion. The Chemin Neuf Community has now moved into Our Lady of England Priory in Storrington. This was at the invitation of the Norbertine Canons who left the Priory after over 130 years in Storrington.
