Volume 1 of 'Monmouthshire Houses' was published in 1951 by Sir Cyril Fox and Lord Raglan.

The series provides a detailed study of the region’s architecture between 1415 and 1714.

Along with Iorwerth C. Peate’s book 'The Welsh House' published in 1946, 'Monmouthshire Houses' provided an early and influential study of Welsh rural homes.

This collection was showcased at the 2016 National Eisteddfod as part of Amgueddfa Cymru's contribution to the Lle Hanes stand.
