No individual entry for this Malton found in the Domesday survey. The entry for the Gilbertine priory here in the Victoria County History (York, vol. 3, 1974) notes: "The priory of St. Mary at Malton was founded in 1150 by Eustace Fitz John, and endowed by him with the churches of Malton, Wintringham, and Brompton, and the vill of Linton; his son William confirmed the gift. [...] Although in 1535 the revenue was under £200, Robert Holgate's influence prevented the dissolution of the priory, which survived for four years longer. The prior was accused of taking part in the Pilgrimage of Grace and arrested, but his fate is unknown; in 1538 the commissioners in the North wrote to Cromwell that Malton would surrender if there were any commissioners to receive it, and in December 1539 the prior and nine canons gave up the last Gilbertine house." The church building survived and became a parish church, remaining now as the only church of the Gilbertine Order still in regular use.
