Steeped in history, it is believed to be the former resting house for the duty monk from Muchelney Abbey, who would come over to take the services in the Church of St. Barnabas (Historic England.) We have also been told that the cottage used to be two separate dwellings, with the current hallway, laid to gorgeous exposed brickwork, being the alley between cottages where the owners horses would rest. The rear of the property was extended and added at a later date, but the original part of the house is believed to date back to the 15th century.ServicesMains electric, drainage and water are connected.
