... Monks-Hall ... This estate belongs to Sir M. Le Fleming,
Baronet, and takes its name from the circumstance of
belonging formerly to the Monks of Furness Abbey in
Lancashire. It was given to them, (with other lands in this
neighbourhood,) by Godartus Dapifer, and was called a
carucate of land. Godartus's heirs confirmed the gift, and
paid, according to Nicholson and Burn, L.100, and five
couples of hounds for a post-fine to King Henry II. At this
hall the Monks had a Steward, and here the tenants used to
pay their rents. It is now a small farm house, but there are
vestiges of a moat and a square building.
