Kersey Priory is a medieval religious house founded in Suffolk during the twelfth century. The priory was established as an Augustinian foundation and served as a centre of monastic life until the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the sixteenth century. Substantial remains of the priory's stone buildings survive at the site, including portions of the conventual structures that testify to its medieval construction and the scale of its operations. The site represents an important example of monastic archaeology in East Anglia and continues to be of significance for understanding the religious landscape of medieval Suffolk.
