Built about 1820 by John Podmore of Hammonds Place, Burgess Hill, which was then
called Clayton Priory. The new house was at first called New Priory. The architect
was possibly John Rebecca of Worthing. The house was later renamed Clayton Priory
when the old house became Hammonds Place. Two storeys. Faced with Roman cement.
The entrance front faces east. It originally had 5 windows, but the centre first floor
window has been replaced by a pair of windows. Cornice and parapet. Ionic pilasters
flank the front for the whole face of the building. Four central window-bays project

recessed in arcading. Architrave over the 2 central first floor windows. Glazing
bars intact. Central semi-circular porch containing a doorway with side lights,
