Reminiscences of Prior Park is a book written by James Shepherd and published in 1894. The book is a memoir of the author's time spent at Prior Park, a grand Georgian mansion located in Bath, England. Shepherd was a former student and later a teacher at Prior Park College, a Catholic boarding school that was housed in the mansion from 1830 to 1856. The book is a collection of anecdotes, stories, and reflections on life at Prior Park during the mid-19th century.

Overall, Reminiscences of Prior Park provides a fascinating glimpse into the world of a 19th-century Catholic boarding school and the broader society in which it was situated.
