Overview
In this article alien houses are included, as are smaller establishments such as monastic granges and cells, and also camerae of the military orders of monks (Templars and Hospitallers).

The column headed 'References' presents links to online references to the particular establishment in addition to the general printed and online references given at the foot of this article. Establishments for which online references have not been specified are refered to within the printed references listed.
The column headed 'Location' provides a link to the geographical position of the site of the foundation where established.
