Porch House

Porch House is a house that was later developed in the 17th century but has a core that dates back to the 15th century. It features a main range made of painted and rendered rubble stone, topped with a hipped stone slate roof and a rear stack. To the right, there is a painted brick range with a Bridgwater tile roof and a ridge stack. The main house is two stories with an attic and has three windows across the front. There is a two-story hipped-roof projecting porch on the right side. The northeast corner has flush quoins.

On the first floor, there are two pairs of leaded casement windows, while the ground floor has a six-light leaded casement window with one iron opening light. The porch has a rendered upper floor, likely timber-framed, with a similar pair of casement windows. The ground floor features a pair of large Doric half-columns and turned baluster screens on either side. Behind the columns is the original timber doorcase, flanked by similar baluster screens. The entrance includes a six-panel door with an overlight.

The range to the right is two stories and was originally timber-framed, but it was raised and refronted in painted brick in the early 19th century. This section has a two-window range of leaded casement pairs and a central door, with the lower openings having cambered heads. The framing is exposed on the west end wall, and there is thin square framing on the rear wall. The interior has not been inspected but is said to contain a cruck in the center and a moulded stone fireplace in the upper left-hand room, according to the 1952 Devizes Rural District List. This house may have served as the chaplain's residence for the Tocotes chantry at Bromham church, which was built in 1492. From 1751 to 1825, it operated as the Red Lion pub.
