Description

Withycombe House is an early 19th-century building located on St John's Road in Withycombe Raleigh. It features a stuccoed facade with a continuous castellated parapet that follows the raking lines of the gables, and has pinnacles at the corners. The building is topped with a Gothic bell cupola. The front block, which includes a square porch, may have been added later. The house is two storeys high and has shutters on the front windows.
