SELBOURNE -
(Click for further information) Although nothing remains of the Knights Templar’s preceptory, it existed just a short way to the East of Selborne at a place called Sotherington. Later, the manor of the ‘Temple of Sotherington’, was just known as Temple. All that remains to keep the name of Sotherington in existence is a farm which sits along Sotherington Lane and in the vicinity the name Temple, appears in Temple Lane and Barns. The Knights Templars had a preceptory at Sotherington and held the manor of Sotherington as early as 1240
