Yedingham Priory is a Benedictine priory founded in the twelfth century in the North Riding of Yorkshire. The priory was established as a daughter house and became an important religious community within the region during the medieval period. Substantial remains of the priory buildings survive, including elements of the conventional structures that reflect its significance as a monastic establishment. The site provides evidence of medieval monastic life and architecture characteristic of Yorkshire's religious foundations before the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the sixteenth century.
