Abstract An exact static monopole solution, possessingn units of magnetic charge and (4n-1) degrees of freedom, is constructed, generalising the recent work of Ward on two monopole solutions. The equations solved are those of anSU(2) gauge theory with adjoint representation Higgs field in the (BPS) limit of vanishing Higgs potential. The number of degrees of freedom is maximal for self-dual solutions. The construction is described in a deductive way, within the framework of the Atiyah-Ward formalism for self-dual gauge fields.
