Monk'S Farmhouse

Monk's Farmhouse is a large detached farmhouse that dates from the mid 17th century and has 19th-century extensions. It is constructed of coursed roughly squared limestone with dressed quoins and features an artificial stone slate roof and a 20th-century dressed stone stack. The building has a rectangular lobby entrance plan with a projecting porch at the front and a stair projection at the rear, along with successive 19th-century extensions to the rear left.

The facade is symmetrical, three stories high, with three bays and two windows. The central feature is a two-story projecting porch. On either side of the porch are four-light hollow-chamfered stone-mullioned casements with stopped hoods, while the first floor has similar three-light stone-mullioned casements. The second floor features two-light stone-mullioned casements without hoods. The porch contains a 20th-century plank door within a flat-chamfered surround, with a two-light hollow-chamfered stone-mullioned casement above it. The returns of the porch have 20th-century single-light casements.

To the right of the porch, there are steps leading down to a cellar. The left gable end has a 20th-century two-light casement and two three-light stone-mullioned casements. The rear of the main body has 20th-century hollow-chamfered stone-mullioned casements, along with blocked pigeon holes and a projecting landing below the eaves. A 20th-century glazed door is located on the right gable end of the main body. The 19th-century extensions are two stories and an attic, with a 20th-century roof dormer and lit by 20th-century two-light wooden casements.

Inside, there is an unusual 17th-century moulded stone fire surround with upward projecting 'lugs' and a moulded stone mantel shelf. There is also a fireplace with a stone surround in an upstairs room that was not inspected, and the interior inspection was limited. The property is owned by the National Trust.
