House of Knights Hospitallers: The preceptory of Dingley
There was a preceptory of the Knights Hospitallers at Dingley as early as the reign of Stephen.
To the former of these two divisions Robert of the Dingley preceptory must have belonged, for he is termed both 'armiger' and 'scutifer.' At a chapter-general, however, held in 1357, this sub-division was abolished, it being ruled that no serving brother should henceforth be eligible for knightly rank.

 House of Knights Templar: Dunwich | British History Online
There was a house or preceptory of the Knights Templars at Dunwich at an early date, for King John, in the first year of his reign, confirmed to them their lands and other liberties at Richdon in this town.
Weever, writing in 1631, describes the church of this establishment as having been a fine building, with a vaulted nave and lead-covered aisles.
The church, styled in wills 'the Temple of Our Lady in Dunwich,' remained in use until the dissolution of the order of the Hospitallers in 1540, when the revenues of the Temple manor fell to the crown, and were granted to Thomas Andrews in 1562, as parcel of the possessions of the Preceptory of Battisford.

 Camerae - 2 Date.
Funds for fighting the crusades were martialled from preceptories and camerae, which were productive farms and manorial landlords, collecting dues, services and voluntary contributions.
A large preceptory might be expected to hold two camerae, such as Willoughton (Lincs) which held Horkstow and Bottesford, and Battisford (Suffolk) which held Coddenham and Mellis.
The order of Knights Templar was suppressed by Apostolic Decree in 1312, following allegations of heresy.
