Norwich Zen Buddhist Priory is a place of meditation and practice for the Sōtō Zen tradition of Buddhism. It is located in west Norwich, England. A senior monk in the Order of Buddhist Contemplatives, Reverend Leoma Hague, is resident there.[1]

Norwich Zen Buddhist Priory was established in 2013.[2] It offers teaching and guidance, either in person or online, on meditation and Buddhist life.[3] There is a schedule of regular meetings, retreats, festivals and other events[4] for anyone who wishes to learn about or deepen their practice of meditation.

The priory is supported by a group of lay Buddhists in Norwich and across East Anglia who follow the Sōtō Zen tradition. It is dependent entirely on donations.
