In the Church there are 16 stalls for the use of a Prior and 15 knights. Nothing now exists of the original buildings. Some of the Sisters of the Order were placed in a hospital near the Parish Church of St John the Baptist. In 1180, King Henry II gave the Monastery at Buckland in Somerset to the Knights Hospitallers on the condition that all the Sisters of the Order should reside there, making Buckland became the only house in England for the Sisters of the Order. Even thought the Sisters of Carbrook Parva went to Buckland, the Parish was charged with an annual payment of 13s 4d towards their support.
Nothing remains above the foundations.
The Church of St John was pulled down in 1424. The founder of this Preceptory is unknown. It was, however, known to be in existence in 1218. The Order of the Knights Templar was abolished in 1312 and in most cases, their property handed over to the Knights Hospitaller. It is known that this Preceptory was in the custody of Thomas de St Omer, Sheriff of Norfolk and Suffolk, in 1326, and passed on to his successor.
