Tortington is a small village in the Arun district of West Sussex, England. It lies just off the Arundel to Ford road 1.6 miles (2.6 km) southwest of Arundel. It had an Augustinian priory, Tortington Priory, but little evidence of this remains.[1] The village's former parish church, St Mary Magdalene's Church, was declared redundant in 1978.[2]
