Description

Balcombe House is an 18th-century building located on London Road. It has two storeys and an attic, featuring five windows and three dormers. The structure is built of red brick, with a stone string course and long and short quoins. A wooden modillion cornice adorns the top, and the roof is hipped and tiled. The windows retain their venetian shutters and glazing bars. The entrance is framed by a moulded architrave surround, topped with a pediment supported by console brackets.
