Does anyone know the locartion of the the 12 Crusader Farms

Recommended Posts

I once read that 12 crusaders returned from the Holy Land in the 13th cenrury were each allotted land by the king on.. a request by the Grand Priore' in Clerkenwell.

 

They were given land in the South Yorkshire area where they built farms that were exempt from all taxes.

 

I may have got the numbers wrong but that is the gist as I can remember.

 

Does anyone know their locations or any more details.

 

 

I would love to hear comments or the history of these places.

 

ome on akll you local history buffs, let's be knowing.

 

Happy Days!
