Monks House and Chastleton Cottage
(formerly listed as Chastleton House and Monks House and 3 Cottages, one unoccupied)

GV
II

House, now 2 dwellings, formerly subdivided into 5 but all now
reunited as Monks House except for 1 bay which is Chastleton Cottage.
Possibly C16 with C17 and later alterations; perhaps originally a
longhouse: hearth-passage plan. Coursed tooled sandstone. Pantiled
roof with tile ridges, stone coping, rendered stacks. Pebbledashed
rear wing.
2 storeys, 4 bays, irregular. Chastleton Cottage, (the left bay),
has half-glazed door in small pent projection from a stone-and-
breezeblock 1-storey left extension which is not of special interest.
Wide stepped-and-chamfered windows on both floors have lost mullions
and been filled by 3-light modern casements.
Monks House has plain boarded door, with small light, at left of
second bay, encroaching on the left part of a 5-light stepped-and-
chamfered mullioned window, now of 4 lights only. The original
doorway, with flattened Tudor-arched lintel, is in the left bay and
now holds a 2-light modern casement; another similar window inserted
between it and the present door. Above the original doorway a
segment-headed fixed window with disturbed masonry below, suggesting
a low attic-storey window before the raising of front wall and eaves
to full 2-storey height; a change of masonry at cill level supports
this. Centre bay has a 5-light stepped-and-chamfered mullioned
window, the left light blocked in old stone. Four-light similar
windows on both floors in right bay and a small downstairs fire
window. Two ridge stacks.
Rear elevation shows a gabled wing now pebbledashed and a new lean-to
in materials to match the old.
Interior shows some old beams and an original stone fireplace.
Pebbledashed garage in front is not of interest.
