Hickling Priory is a ruined Augustinian priory situated in the parish of Hickling in Norfolk, dating from the twelfth century. The priory was established as a house of Augustinian canons and remained in operation until its dissolution during the reign of Henry VIII in the sixteenth century. The surviving remains include fragmentary stone walls and foundations that testify to the religious community's former presence on the site. The priory represents an important aspect of medieval Norfolk's ecclesiastical landscape, though substantial portions of the original structures have been lost to time and subsequent disturbance.
