St Monica'S Court, St Monica'S Home Of Rest

St Monica's Court, part of St Monica's Home of Rest, is a nurse's home for almshouses, now functioning as a retirement home. It was built around 1925 by Sir George Oatley for HH Wills. The building features squared, coursed Pennant rubble with limestone dressings, diagonal square ashlar cross-axial and central rear axial stacks, and a tiled cross-gabled roof, all designed in the Elizabethan revival style.

The structure has a single-depth plan with end cross wings, standing three storeys tall with an attic and a five-window range. The symmetrical front showcases projecting end gables with moulded coping and finials, along with three-storey canted bays that have paired cross windows on the ground and first floors. Below an ashlar parapet with finials, there is a four-light mullion window. The central entrance features two semicircular arches, wider in the middle, with half-glazed doors. The windows above follow the same style as the bays, with the central first-floor window divided by a fifth light, and there is a continuous range of mullioned attic windows beneath the overhanging eaves, arranged in a 4:6:4 pattern separated by blind panels, all with leaded metal casements.

At the back of the right-hand gable, there is a square crenellated tower. Inside, the building has a large entrance stair hall with a rear stair flight. For historical context, refer to St Monica's Rest Home.
