# Places

Monkton has 22 buildings and structures on Historic England's
National Heritage List for England — the statutory register of
listed buildings. Several of them are named on Stuart Horsburgh's
[Monkton 1926](history/monkton-1926.md) centenary walk map, so the
two pages are worth reading side by side.

The church itself carries the highest grade in the parish, Grade I;
Gore Street Farmhouse and Cleve Court/Cleve Lodge are Grade II\*; the
rest are Grade II. Listing dates below are when each entry was added
to the register, not when the building was built.

Several of these — Monkton Court, Walters Hall, the Royal Exchange,
the Vicarage, Field House, Thatch Cottage, Lantern Cottage, and the
Delce Cottages — are marked by name on the 1926 map, giving a
hundred-year snapshot of who lived in each one either side of the
listing itself.
