Description
Cumberford House is a house that likely dates back to the 17th century, with a datestone indicating the year 1742. It is constructed of regularly coursed ironstone rubble and features a Welsh slate roof with three brick stacks at the ridge and ends, one of which is on a stone base. The building has an L-shaped plan.
On the south-east elevation, the left section is a single storey plus attic, while the right section is two storeys plus attic with a gable front. The entrance features a six-panelled door and a lattice porch, flanked by casement windows with wooden lintels. There is a single attic casement window on the left part, and the right part has a first-floor casement window with a keystoned surround, along with a similar small window above that has crown glass. Some windows are fitted with wrought iron casement fasteners, and the building has ironstone quoins. The gable is adorned with stone copings and kneelers.
Facing Cumberford Hill, the house has three tall two-light casements on the ground floor, which have keystoned flat arches, although the window to the left is blocked. There are three similar windows on the first floor, all featuring wrought iron casement fasteners.
Inside, the house has a notable stone fireplace dated 1619, which was brought from a house in Adderbury, along with early 19th-century fittings.
