Treasurer's House, Medieval house museum in Martock, England
The Treasurer's House stands with a T-shaped layout, featuring a Solar Block from 1250 and a Great Hall added in 1293, built from local Hamstone.
The building served as a parsonage for All Saints' Church in 1227 when Hugh, the Treasurer of Wells Cathedral, acquired the property and established its name.
The Solar Block contains a significant 13th-century wall painting of the Crucifixion, discovered during restoration work beneath layers of limewash.
The National Trust manages this Grade I listed building, offering adult admission for £4.00 and child tickets for £2.00, with free entry for members.
The Chancellor of England, John Langton, stored the Great Seal of the Realm in this house around 1297, marking its role in English governance.
