Torphichen Preceptory 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Nestled in the heart of Torphichen, West Lothian, lies Torphichen Preceptory. Maintained by Historic Scotland, the Preceptory is one of two examples to be found in Britain. The other is located in London. The earliest known records of its existence are from 1168. In its current state, it consists of the two trnscepts and the tower, though foundations from various other parts, such as the cloisters, still exist. The original church was the only Scottish link to the Preceptory of the Knights Hospitaller of the Order of St John of Jerusalem and today it is manned by members of the Order of St. John.
