Overview

History & significance

Haltemprice is a ruined Augustinian priory located near Cottingham in the East Riding of Yorkshire. Founded in the twelfth century as a house of Augustinian canons regular, the priory played a modest but sustained role in the religious life of the region throughout the medieval period. The surviving remains include substantial stone walls and foundations that attest to the priory's conventional layout, though much of the original structure was dismantled following the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the sixteenth century. The site is now designated as an ancient monument and preserves important archaeological evidence of Yorkshire's monastic heritage.
