Lower Kingcombe Farmhouse

Lower Kingcombe Farmhouse is a detached farmhouse with an outhouse, dating from the early 17th century, possibly with an earlier core. It was extended to the south in the 18th century, with some 19th and 20th-century changes to the ground floor windows. The farmhouse features a rubble-stone base up to one metre high and walls made of ashlar chalk blocks, with a rubble stone gable end on the north side. The roof is thatched with gable ends, and there are brick stacks: one at the left gable and a ridge stack at the left (former gable) from the 18th century, and another at the right gable from the 19th century.

The building has one and a half storeys and originally had three windows, which have been extended to four. The ground-floor openings from left to right include a blocked doorway with a lintel above, a three-light wooden casement window with a lintel above (renewed in the 19th century), a blocked window with ashlar voussoirs and ashlar blocking, a three-light 19th-century wooden casement with wooden cills and lintels, another three-light casement window with iron and lead lights in a wooden frame, and a six-rib-panel door located to the right of center with panelled reveals. There is also a blocked window with a fossilized lintel and an enlarged three-light wooden casement slightly to the right, dating from the 20th century. The house features four eyebrow dormers, each with three-light casements made of iron with lead lights in wooden frames, dating from the 17th and 18th centuries.

The interior likely has jointed-cruck construction, although an internal inspection has not been conducted. The outhouse at the south end has rubble-stone walls and a slate roof, and is lower than the main house. Its doorway features chalk-block jambs and a wooden lintel above, with a plank door. There is a fixed, glazed window higher and to the right of the doorway, also with a wooden lintel.
