Combhill Farmhouse

Combhill Farmhouse is a farmhouse that likely started as a bastle house, dating from the 16th century or early 17th century. The front wall was partly rebuilt in the 18th century. It features massive random rubble construction, with the later rebuilding done in coursed stone, and has a Welsh slate roof. The building is two storeys high and has three bays. The 18th-century openings include a central 20th-century door set in a chamfered surround, with a small 19th-century wooden porch. There are 20th-century windows fitted into the old openings, which have concrete sills. The gabled roof has flat coping and end stacks, with the left stack being an 18th-century external stack that may cover the original byre doorway. There is a blocked first-floor doorway on the right side of the building. The walls are approximately 4 feet thick, slightly thinner on the first floor. A 20th-century outshut at the rear is not of special interest.
