Hickling Priory
Hickling Priory was an Augustinian priory located in Norfolk, England.
The house was founded in 1185 by Theobald, grandson of Peter de Valognes who arrived with William the Conqueror. By 1291 the Priory had possession of thirty two Norfolk parishes and held an annual three-day fair.
The Plague killed all but two of its brethren and the house never fully recovered, being cited repeatedly thereafter by episcopal authorities for deteriorated buildings and lax observance by the canons.
The Proiry was surrendered to the crown on June 4, 1534. The Valor of 1535 gave its value as £100 with their most valuable possession being the nearby manor of Hickling.
Today ruined portions of the church and claustral buildings survive on the privately owned Priory Farm in Hickling.
