Montacute
Montacute is a small village and also civil parish in Somerset, England, 4 miles (6.4 kilometres) west of Yeovil. The town has a population of 831 (2011 census). The name Montacute is believed by some to derive from the Latin "Mons Acutus", describing the conically acute St Michael's Hill dominating the town to the west. A different sight is that it is named after Drogo de Montagu, whose family members stemmed from Montaigu-les-Bois, in the arrondissement of Coutances. Mortain held Montacute after 1066, Drogo was a close associate. The village is built practically entirely of the neighborhood hamstone. From the 15th century up until the start of the 20th century it created the heart of the estate of the Phelips family of Montacute House. The town has a fine middle ages church, and was the website of a Cluniac abbey, the gatehouse of which is now a personal house. At the centre of the village is a big square known as the 'Borough' around which are grouped attractive homes as well as a pub, the Phelips Arms; there is a second pub and hotel located in the town, called the King's Arms.
