Michelham Priory is a rare fortified monastery, moated and a gate tower added in the late 13th century, probably in anticipation of a French attack. Boasting England's longest medieval water-filled moat, Michelham Priory's "Island of History" reflects its nearly 800 year existence. The house dates back to 1229 when the Priory was founded and was lived in by Augustinian canons until the Dissolution in 1537. Michelham Priory offers much to interest visitors history, exhibits, superbly kept gardens, art exhibitions, wildlife, working watermill.

The annual Garden Sculpture Trail features works by local artists and are specially selected for their merit and their ability to complement the garden.

The Watermill on the property was recently refurbished with the assistance of grants obtained from the Heritage Lottery Fund, East Sussex County Council and The Friends of Michelham Priory.
