The Priest's House, Muchelney, Medieval house museum in Muchelney, England.

The Priest's House features traditional Somerset architecture with Gothic doorways, traceried windows, and local stone construction with hamstone decorative elements.

Built in 1308 by Muchelney Abbey monks as a residence for the parish priest, the house underwent significant restoration in the early 20th century.

The interior contains original architectural elements including a 15th-century fireplace and a 14th-century cruck roof with saddle apex design.

The National Trust manages this Grade II listed building, which opens to visitors at specific times throughout the year with parking available nearby.

The building's floor-to-ceiling hall was modified in the 16th century with the addition of an upper level, requiring alterations to the existing windows.
