	Touring Monastic Yorkshire on Britannia: Kirkham Priory
		Kirkham was founded by Walter L'Espec the same man who erected the grand Abbey of Rievaulx.
		The priory survived, however, and was must patronised by the De Roos Lords of Helmsley in the 13th and 14th centuries.
		Many of them were buried in the, now ruined, priory church and records reveal the tomb remains on the southern side of the presbytery to be those of Lords William (1343) and Robert (1285).

		Kirkham Priory was founded in the 1120s by Walter Esoec, Lord of nearby Helmsey, and later patron of the Cistercians at Rievaulx.
		This priory was a house of Augustinian canons, communities of priests who observed the Rule of St Augustine and who took responsibility for parish churches early in their history, the canons of Kirkham survived an attempt to transfer the priory to the Cistercian order.
		Beyond the gatehouse the priory extends as a wide expanse of grass rising to an extensive private property on the hill to the west and sloping down to the River Derwent on the east.

	Houses of Austin canons: Priory of Kirkham \| British History Online
		Citation: 'Houses of Austin canons: Priory of Kirkham', A History of the County of York: Volume 3 (1974), pp.
		The most important incident in the early history of Kirkham is undoubtedly the proposed cession to the abbey of Rievaulx of Kirkham itself, and a considerable amount of its property, on the condition that the patron gave other lands to the canons in lieu of those which were to pass to Rievaulx.
		A memorandum is added, that in time of peace the priory received 1,000 marks of silver annually from its rents in Northumberland, but had received nothing from that source for the past seven years.

	Kirkham Priory
		It is said that the altar of Kirkham Priory (where masses would be said for his soul) was placed on the very spot where the heir of the L'Especs had met his early death.
		Among them are St. Peter, David and Goliath, St. George and the dragon, etc. There are also heraldic shields bearing the arms of the priory, etc. Of the church the east-end of the chancel remains, and its mouldings and carvings are of great beauty: some portion of the cloisters are also still to be seen.
		Henry VIII., at the dissolution, bestowed the priory, then a nunnery, on one of his courtiers, a greedy and heartless man. He took immediate possession, insisting on the instant departure of the nuns, with great harshness and cruelty.

		Its suprising so little is known about the Priory even though it had been such a large building, possibly it was overshadowed by other bigger more important priories in the nearby area such as Rievaulx.

		More recent events is that the area that lies inbetween the Priory and the river Derwent was used as a practice area during the second world war for vehicles preparing for the D day landings of 1944 and was also visited by the then Prime Minister Winston Churchill.

	York Stories - Walks in Yorkshire: Kirkham Priory to Welburn
		So if you are trying to follow this walk by my rather poor directions, please read on for continuing poor directions which take us back to Kirkham Priory.
		Once you get to it, you can either cross by the stile - which means walking across the track (and then turning right, to head back to the road) - or if nervous, you can turn right and walk alongside it, back to the road, where there's a proper, staffed level crossing with gates.
		Distance and time taken: Not sure of the distance, as we deviated from the original route, but it took around 3 hours, so a rough guess is that it's about 5 miles.
