. The Victoria history of the county of Hertford. Natural history. Traces dormer windoiv) •10 5 Scale of Feet £3172! Century EDLateu and modern. Plan of thb Beeches, Brent Pelham the moulded ribs of which form a square and hexagonal pattern ; the ceiling goes into the bay window. The wide kitchen fireplace has a three-centred arch, partly blocked ; there is a small cellar under the kitchen. On the first floor is a stone fireplace with four-centred arch and frieze carved with roses and leaves ; it is of mid-17th-century date. The attic floor over the main block is one long gallery the whole length of the building ; it is 66 ft. long by 10 ft. 6 in. wide, and is now lighted only by a small brick-mullioned window pierced through the chimney stack at each end. Near the centre, in a recess, is a stone fireplace with splayed four-centred arch. The gallery was formerly lighted by dormers on both sides, traces of which still remain. It is ceiled on the sloping rafters and under the collars of the roof; the sloping part was formerly decorated with moulded plaster ribs forming a pattern of large hexagons with plaster roses where the ribs crossed, portions of which remain. In 1595 the capital messuage or farm called Shonk in Brent Pelham was held with Beeches Manor.' Chauncy in 1700 describes ' an old decayed house well moated . . called O Piers Shonks, '' and in 1743 an old moated barn known at Shonki Bam stood near Beeches Manor House, but was ' in a very tottering condition, '' and a neighbouring wood was called Shonks Wood, ' now apparently Beeches Wood. Shonks Moats can still be seen near Beeches House about a mile to the south-east of Brent Pelham Church and inclose two islands. Popular tradition connects these place-names with a tomb in the church, which an 18th-century inscription ascribes to O Piers Shonks who died in 1086. But the tomb dates only from the late 13th century.* The name Shonks has been more plausibly derived from the early tenancy of Gilbert Sanke (see
