      The twistor theory of singular hyperbolic SU(2) monopoles [Hyperbolic version of Kronheimer's work on monopoles and Taub-NUT metrics, Transfer Thesis, Oxford University (1985)] is developed. It is shown that the moduli space of charge 1 monopoles possesses a natural 2-sphere of scalar flat Kähler metrics. In the zero mass limit, the metrics reduce to a class of LeBrun metrics.
