Synod of Whitby (663). Synod of Charroux (989). Synods of the Syriac Orthodox Church (until 2000, the Syrian Orthodox Church) have been held at various monasteries since at least 878. See: http://adultera.awardspace.com/CHRON/SYR/09.html and (for a synod in 1860): http://www.syrianchurch.org/ApostolicVisit2004/Catholicate.htm Doubtless others too.
