Hardham Priory is a ruined Augustinian house located near Pulborough in West Sussex, founded in the early twelfth century. The priory was established as a cell or dependent house, likely under the patronage of Norman lords, and functioned as a small religious community during the medieval period. Surviving remains include fragments of the priory church and associated monastic buildings, which demonstrate the architectural character of a modest religious foundation. The site was dissolved during the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the sixteenth century, after which the buildings fell into decay, leaving the substantial ruins visible today.
