NGC 1310 is a barred spiral galaxy located in the southern constellation of Fornax. It was discovered by English astronomer John Herschel on 22 October 1835.

At a distance of 72 million light-years (22 Mpc) away from the Sun, NGC 1310 is a member of the Fornax A subgroup of the Fornax Cluster of galaxies.

One supernova has been observed in NGC 1310: SN 1965J was discovered by Gibson Reaves on 31 August 1965. It was about 14 arcseconds east and 7 arcseconds south of the center of the galaxy.
