Description
Combe Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the 17th century, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of rubble and pebble-dash, topped with a double Roman tiled roof featuring crestings and brick gable stacks, as well as some pantiles. It has a cross passage and a T-plan layout formed by a rear staircase tower.
The farmhouse is two storeys high and has three windows on the front. The ground floor features a four-light casement window on both the right and left sides, with timber lintels and ovolo mullions, along with 19th-century lights. The second window from the right is a similar two-light casement. The second window from the left has a steep gabled 19th-century porch with bargeboards and a finial, which contains a heavy plank and batten door with studs and strap hinges, a moulded frame, and pointed arched sidelights. The first floor has three-light casements with timber lintels, some retaining ovolo mullions, while the rest have 19th-century lights.
On the left side of the building, there is a two-light casement window at ground floor level, similar to those on the front, and a single-storey lean-to. The right side features a 19th-century one-and-a-half storey wing with a three-light casement on the ground floor and a small two-light casement on the first floor, along with a small single attic light. The rear of the farmhouse has a single-storey pantiled lean-to with a 20th-century door that encloses the rear passage door and an earlier rubble lean-to to the right. The two-storey stair tower contains a three-light casement with ovolo mullions and a timber lintel on both the first and second floors, with a smaller casement on the second floor.
Inside, the door to the front right room features a carved panel over the lintel with scroll-work, and there are moulded beams in that same room. The stair in the tower divides to the right and left at the half-landing. The rest of the interior is not accessible.
