Whitley Thorpe moated Templar grange site is a medieval agricultural settlement located approximately 600 metres north-west of Fulham House in Yorkshire. The site comprises a moated enclosure that served as a grange, or outlying farm, associated with the Knights Templar, the military religious order that held substantial estates across England during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. The moat, which survives as an earthwork feature, would have provided both defensive capability and water management for the working agricultural complex. The site dates to the medieval period when the Templars actively managed their English properties before the order's suppression in the early fourteenth century.
