Monkton Farleigh Manor

The earliest part of the manor house, built of materials from the priory and dating from the 16th century, is on the western side.

The cellars of the house belonged to the original conventual buildings of the priory.

Part of an altar tomb with heavy carving from the priory has been incorporated into a chimney-piece at Monkton House in nearby Broughton Gifford.

After his death in 1851 it was sublet to a succession of tenants, and eventually the Ecclesiastical Commissioners formed the manor into a freehold estate, and the part of it attached to the manor house, along with the house itself, was sold in 1873 to Sir Charles Hobhouse, Bt, whose descendants are the present owners.

[1] Near the house, a free-standing gable end wall – the remains of the priory's 13th-century refectory – is also Grade I listed.
