Everard de Ros (c. 1145 - c. 1183) was the lord of Hamlake, modern version: Helmsley.
Originally a ward of Ranulph de Granville, he seems to have been wealthy as in 1176 he paid the then large sum of five hundred and twenty-six pounds as a fine for his lands, and other large amounts subsequently. He was the son of Robert de Ros and Sybil de Valoines. Everard de Ros married Rose Trusbut (in 1170 or 1171 [1] ) with whom he had two sons, the oldest of which, Robert de Ros, became a Magna Carta surety. [2] After 1170-71, he assumed the arms of Trussebut of Warter. [3]
He died around 1186; he and his wife (both apparently great benefactors to various religious institutes) [4] are buried in the church of Hunmanby. [5]

The ruins of Kirkham Priory are situated on the banks of the River Derwent, at Kirkham, North Yorkshire, England. The Augustinian priory was founded in the 1120s by Walter l'Espec, lord of nearby Helmsley, who also built Rievaulx Abbey. The priory was surrendered in 8 December 1539 during the Dissolution of the Monasteries. Legend has it that Kirkham was founded in remembrance of l'Espec's only son who had died nearby as a consequence of his horse being startled by a boar. The area was later used to test the D-Day landing vehicles, and was visited by Winston Churchill. The ruins are now Grade I listed and a scheduled monument in the care of English Heritage.
