Snainton Preceptory (also known as Foulbridge Priory) was a priory, just south of the village of Snainton, in North Yorkshire, England. The preceptory was started by the Knights Templar at Foulbridge which sits 1-mile (2 km) to the east of a Benedictine Priory at Yedingham. Both houses were on the River Derwent.[1]
The preceptory was founded before 1226, but was suppressed between 1308 and 1312 and passed to the Knights Hospitaller in 1324, as confirmed by Edward II.[2] The preceptory was given to the Archbishop of York in 1556, but it is unclear what happened afterwards.[3] Some of the buildings are now a grade I listed farmhouse and cottage.[4]
