Annery, Monkleigh, Medieval estate in Monkleigh, England

The Annery estate includes three Victorian gatehouses, a Georgian dower house, and a stable block within the North Devon countryside of Monkleigh.

The estate belonged to Tavistock Abbey in 961, with Osbert de Annery as its first recorded tenant who gave the property its name.

Charles Kingsley featured the Annery estate in his novel Westward Ho, using it as a setting for both a duel scene and a banquet.

The original mansion house location now contains a bungalow, while the remaining estate grounds are divided among multiple property owners.

The estate contained a deer park established in 1422, complete with specialized buildings including cider houses and a walled kitchen garden.
