Monks Thatch

Monks Thatch is a house dating from the 15th or 16th century, with later alterations. It is constructed of coursed and squared rubble and features a thatched roof with two ashlar stacks that have moulded caps. The building is a single storey with an attic and consists of two bays. On the first floor, there are two three-light wooden casement windows with square-paned leaded lights, and the eaves rise to form bonnet hoods.

On the ground floor, to the right, there are two two-light stone-mullioned windows, each with a cambered head, and a continuous stopped label above them. To the left, there is a three-light moulded stone-mullioned window with a stopped label and square-paned lead lights, as well as a three-light moulded wooden casement window, also with leaded lights. The central door opening features a plank door and is topped by a thatched bonnet hood supported by wooden posts. A sundial is located to the left of the frontage.

Inside, there are two plank and muntin partitions flanking a through passage, ceiling beams, and a fireplace with a wooden bressumer. The building may have originally served as a church house or the residence of a priest.
