The community is known only by its termination date which was supplied by council in 1075 when Normans moved the cathedral from Selsey with canons. Only William of Malmesbury offered any suggestion that women religious had a community in Chichester (De gestis pontificum Anglorum libri quinque, 205; see also Veiled Women, vol. 2, 65 and n. 1).
Foot notes that the minster of St. Peter's may have been a dependency of Selsey; though it could also have been an earlier independent foundation (Veiled Women,vol. 2 66).
Saxon nuns
Nave of cathedral is said to be the community's church.
