The church, dedicated to St. Peter, is extremely ancient, and is thought by most antiquarians to have formerly been parochial, from its having bells in the tower, at the time when none but parochial churches were allowed them.

A bed of sand, which at low water extends over several acres, serves for the ballasting of small craft.

But it was not merely against their enemies, but also against their friends, that the Canons found it necessary to seek protection, for we find them under the ponti ficate of Pope Innocent III. complaining, "that the archdeacon of Richmond going to one of their churches, had travelled with 97 horses, 21 dogs, and 3 hawks-tribus avibus venatoriis, whereby he consumed more of their provisions in one hour than would have maintained their house for a long time;" on which his holiness forbade that ecclesiastics should, for the time to come, travel with a greater retinue than is allowed by the statutes of the council of Lateran, which limits the train of an Archbishop to 50 horses, a Bishop to 30, a Legate to 25, and an archdeacon to 7. The priory continued to flourish through a suecession of ages, but in the time of Heury VIII. it shared the fate of other religious houses, and William Wode, the last prior, was executed for high treason, in the year 1537, on a charge of having engaged in the rebellion in the North and East of York. shire, which succeeded the Pilgrimage of Grace, and aimed at the samne object. At the period of the dissolution this monastery was endowed with rents, of the value, according to Dugdale, of 5471. 6s. 1d. and according to Speed, of 6827. 13s. 9d. per annum. The church of the priory appears from its remains to have been once a noble structure. The West end yet displays no inconsiderable degree of Gothic magnifi cence, and the date 1136, preserved on a stone placed conspicuously over the entrance, is supposed to mark the year of its foundation; originally it had two towers, but they are now both demolished. The East end, and the transepts are also entirely destroyed, and the remaining part is only a small fragment of the ancient building. Of the walls and fortifications which once inclosed the priory, nothing now remains except an arched gate-way, at the distance of about half a furlong from the West end of the In the wapentake of Dickering; 8 miles from Hunmanby, 12 from Driffield, 18 from Scarborough, 40 from York, and 201 from London, by way of Lincoln. This town is situated on the Eastern coast, about a mile from the shore, in the recess of the commodious and beautiful bay to which it affords its name. It consists chiefly of one long irregularly framed street, extending along the Southern declivity of a small elevation, and its situation is both pleasant and salubrious. The antiquity of Bridlington it it difficult, perhaps impos-church. Above the arch is a large room, sible, to ascertain, but it is clearly of Saxon origin. Early in the reign of Henry I. Walter de Gant, the son of Gilbert de Gant, one of the barons of William the conqueror, founded here a priory for the Black Canons of the order of St. Austin, which he dedicated to the blessed Virgin Mary. This priory which stands at the East end of the town, is pleasantly situated, with the command of a fine sea prospect, and was, according to Burton, inclosed with walls and houses, built of stone and lime, in 1388, in order to fortify it from the enemy's ships, which frequently entered the har now used partly as a Town's hall, and partly as a National School, and beneath are some gloomy cells, called the Kit-cote, which serve as places of confinement for petty delinquents. This monastery has been the residence of several persons distinguished in their day and generation: amongst these may be reckoned, Robert the Scribe, who flourished about the year 1180, and who The average number of boys instructed in this seminary during the last year was established on the same system, which is 118, and a School for Girls is about to be that of Dr. Bell. |
