Situated within the North Norfolk district of Norfolk in eastern England, Priory is a compact electoral ward that sits close to the county's coast and countryside. It combines small residential streets, pockets of period housing and open agricultural land, giving a mix of seaside fringe and rural character.
The ward's name reflects historic ecclesiastical links in the area and there are modest local landmarks and green spaces rather than large urban centres; the local economy leans on tourism, hospitality, agriculture and everyday services, while community halls, parish organisations and volunteer groups play an active social role.
