Beauly Priory is a medieval priory founded in the thirteenth century by the Valliscaulian order in the village of Beauly in Inverness-shire, Scotland. The surviving remains comprise the substantial ruins of the priory church, characterised by pointed Gothic arches and masonry work typical of medieval ecclesiastical architecture. The site functioned as both a religious community and burial ground, serving the local population throughout the medieval period and into later centuries. The priory was eventually abandoned, though portions of the structure, particularly the west front and sections of the nave and choir, remain visible and have been subject to conservation as a protected historical monument.
