The festival, which celebrated life in the Middle Ages, also included living history camps, cookery and colourful historical dress.
Children were able to take part in a medieval trail across the Priory grounds, and even have a go at hobby horse jousting.
Sussex Newspapers photographer Jon Rigby went along on the Saturday and took these pictures of the day.
