Questions about The Monastery
Is The Monastery on the National Inventory?
Yes: rated Regional (record 11816015).
Can you visit The Monastery?
It can be seen from the street; whether you can go inside depends on its owner.
When was The Monastery built?
Its National Inventory record dates it to 1850–1870.
Is The Monastery protected?
Being on the National Inventory or the Sites and Monuments Record is a record, not protection by itself: buildings are protected by their council’s Record of Protected Structures, which each council keeps and no national open list gathers, so this page can’t say which are on it.
