The Priory, Reigate is a monastic site founded in the twelfth century as an Augustinian priory. The surviving remains include substantial sections of flint and stone walling, parts of which are incorporated into later structures on the site. The priory was dissolved during the Reformation in the sixteenth century, and its buildings were subsequently adapted for secular use. The extant fabric represents an important example of medieval monastic architecture in Surrey and contributes significantly to understanding the religious and social structures of the region during the High and Late Medieval periods.
