Montacute is a tiny village as well as civil parish in Somerset, England, 4 miles (6.4 km) 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", referring to the conically severe St Michael's Hill dominating the village to the west. An alternative view is that it is named after Drogo de Montagu, whose family stemmed from Montaigu-les-Bois, in the arrondissement of Coutances. Mortain held Montacute after 1066, Drogo was a close affiliate. The village is built almost completely of the neighborhood hamstone. From the 15th century till the start of the 20th century it formed the heart of the estate of the Phelips family of Montacute House. The village has a great middle ages church, and was the site of a Cluniac abbey, the gatehouse of which is currently an exclusive home. At the centre of the town is a big square referred to as the 'Borough' around which are grouped picturesque cottages as well as a bar, the Phelips Arms; there is a 2nd pub and hotel positioned in the town, called the King's Arms.
