Description
Norton Priory, originally the Rectory, likely dates to the 16th century or earlier. It is a two-storey building with five windows. The exterior is painted brick, featuring gables at each end with chimney breasts. The windows are casements, a mix of original ones with small square panes and more modern replacements. A later brick porch with a flat roof and an obtusely pointed doorway stands at the front. A modern wing extends at the east end. The interior retains some panelling.
