Whitley Thorpe Grange

Whitley Thorpe Grange Details

Whitley Thorpe Grange was a manorial centre of the Knights Templar built upon a rectangular platform surrounded by a moat. Today it is in a low lying field with no public access but visible from the road and there are further linear earthworks in the field which probably represent fishponds. It appears to have become abandoned in the C14 after the suppression of the Templar Order.
