Monks Green Farmhouse

Monks Green Farmhouse is a 16th-century former open hall house that has undergone several changes over the years. In the 18th century, a floor was inserted, and in the 19th century, rear extensions were added to create a new symmetrical north front. The farmhouse features a timber frame with roughcast and painted brick casing up to the heads of the ground floor windows, while the north extensions are in painted brickwork. The roof is steeply pitched with old red tiles and is half-hipped at the eastern end.

This long, one-and-a-half-storey house is situated in an isolated farmstead and is entered from the south. The 19th-century north extension includes a single-storey center flanked by two lower wings that end in canted bay windows. A gabled dormer is centrally located on the main roof, and the south front has four gabled dormers at the eaves. The ground floor features five windows, including two canted bay windows and one rectangular bay window. The entrance door is near the west end, flanked by two-light casement windows.

The interior consists of five structural bays, with the entrance located in the second bay from the west. The west bay is axially divided, and there are axial chamfered beams with hollow stops. Exposed posts are visible in the walls. The north extension contains encaustic tiles and colored glass margins around leaded lancet lights. Additionally, there is a two-panel ovolo-moulded door, an edge-halved scarf joint with bridled butts in the old wallplate, and old strap hinges on the doors.
