Description

HISTORY
The original house, dating from the early 19th Century, was the Rectory for the neighbouring St Peter's church. From about 1870 it became a private house and then in 1984 was
converted to become the pre-prep for Monmouth School. The school was closed in 2024 when it was amalgamated within the main school. The house is Grade II Listed and at one time
was known as Old Dixton Cottage.

FOR SALE FREEHOLD
The approach to Agincourt is off Dixton roundabout on the A40. The lane passes the two hard standing car parks and leads directly to the wrought iron gates with its stone pillars and high stone wall. The two original buildings were the Rectory and beyond a traditional stone-built barn. The two buildings have now been linked by the more recent extensions that were added over the decades, with a final glazed corridor linking the barn itself. The Rectory still shows off some of its old characteristics such as the porch and hall at the back of which is the original staircase. There are two reception rooms either side of the Hall with their original fireplaces. On the first floor what were bedrooms, have now been put to use as school rooms of one description or another.
Beyond the original main building, the extension on the north side has further classrooms on two floors. The southern extension includes a large dining hall and kitchen on the first floor. There are various staircases providing access to the first floor at convenient locations. Within the courtyard formed by the two extensions is the school entrance and reception and the link to the barn where there is a staff room on the ground floor and the first floor once used as the IT room.

THE GROUNDS
The raised grass bund is on three sides of the property with a removable flood gate at the entrance. Throughout the grounds there are a plentiful number of useful storage sheds.
Recreational facilities include a hard court play area and a small football pitch. There are a number of covered areas used for outside summer classrooms. Although the grounds
extend to the river, this length is fenced off there being a public footpath running parallel to and between the fence and the river bank.
