Monkton Old Hall

The building was originally a guesthouse for Monkton Priory, located nearby. The current building mostly dates from the 14th century, but the chimney is of earlier construction in the Norman architectural style.^[1] After the dissolution of the Monasteries, the building was split up into multiple tenements. J.R. Cobb began a restoration in 1879, as it had been reduced to a ruin consisting of an empty shell. These renovations included the addition of the present roof.^[2][3]

Further modifications took place post-1933, with the addition of leaded windows.^[2] Monkton Old Hall became Grade I listed on 10 February 1951.^[4] In 1979, Leonard Beddall-Smith conducted further works on the building on behalf of the Landmark Trust, which now offers it as a holiday let.^[2] The gardens are designated Grade II on the Cadw/ICOMOS Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest in Wales.^[5]
