Pentney Priory is a Augustinian priory founded in the late twelfth century in Norfolk, England. The surviving remains at Abbey Farm comprise fragmentary stone and flint walls that represent part of the priory's claustral ranges and associated structures. The site was dissolved during the Reformation in the sixteenth century, after which the priory buildings fell into disrepair and were subsequently dismantled. The surviving masonry provides archaeological evidence of the priory's layout and construction techniques characteristic of medieval monastic establishments in East Anglia.
