Easebourne Priory, Medieval priory in Easebourne, England.
The stone building incorporates preserved claustral remains into a residential structure situated on the south side of St Mary's Church in West Sussex.
Founded around 1238 by the de Bohun family, the Augustinian nunnery housed a prioress and ten nuns until the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1536.
The restored refectory maintains its religious function through current parochial activities, connecting modern community practices with the building's monastic past.
The Grade I listed building requires special permissions for any modifications, ensuring the preservation of its medieval architectural elements for future generations.
Queen Elizabeth I spent three days at the priory in 1591, where she watched performances including actors portraying pilgrims at a fishpond.
