Background

History

North Ormsby was in antiquity known as Nun Ormsby. It is documented in the Domesday account as "Ormesbi". The manor comprised 1 smallholder, 10 freemen, 8 ploughlands, 40 acre of meadow and 10 acre of woodland. Lords in 1066 were Skemundr and Ulf Fenman, the land transferred to Geoffrey of Aalst as Lord of the manor in 1086 with Drogo of la BeuvriËre as Tenant-in-chief. A Gilbertine priory dedicated to Saint Mary was founded as a double house between 1148 and 1154, and dissolved in 1538. There are still earthworks visible, and the site is scheduled.
