Nether Mumbie NY 379 797 NY37NE 1
Nothing can be seen of the tower that is noted as 'Monkeby' in 1552 and as 'Munkbiherste' in 1590. Although the Ordnance Survey suggest that it stood at the modern farmsteading of Nether Mumbie (NY 379 797), Graham notes the discovery of 'traces of the tower' in a nearby field.
RCAHMS 1981, visited November 1980.
