Yedingham Priory is a Benedictine priory situated in the North Riding of Yorkshire, founded in the twelfth century as a daughter house of Whitby Abbey. The priory was dissolved during the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the sixteenth century, after which its buildings fell into ruin. Substantial remains of the monastic structures survive, including parts of the church and domestic buildings, which demonstrate the architectural character typical of medieval Yorkshire monasteries. The site retains considerable archaeological significance as evidence of monastic life and organisation in medieval northern England.
