Description

Corscombe House is a detached house that was formerly the Rectory. It dates from the 17th century, with a front wing added in the 18th century and a rear wing from the 19th century. The building features stone walls that are rendered and buttressed, with three sets of offsets. It has a slate roof with stone gable copings and stone stacks at the left-hand gable and the ridge center, along with a brick stack at the right-hand gable end facing the front. The house is two storeys high with attics.

On the east elevation, there are three windows with three-light hollow-chamfered stone mullions, each with labels above. The upper windows have two lights and renewed concrete lintels. The 19th-century porch has a four-centred entrance arch with a label above and square stops. The door features bottom panels and two lights above, which were formerly pointed, and has pointed-arch panelled reveals.

Inside, the house has large, well-fitting flagstones. There is a stone fireplace in the north end wall with a Tudor-arch head, recessed spandrels, and a massive stone lintel, along with moulded stone jambs.
