Garden Building About 100 Metres North of Combe House

The garden building, located about 100 meters north of Combe House, is a Grade II listed structure. It is believed to have been built in the late 18th century, likely for Thomas Putt, known as Black Tom Putt, who was the squire of Combe from 1757 to 1787. The building is constructed from rendered brick, with the front elevation featuring ashlar masonry in a classical style.

The structure has a rectangular plan and faces south towards Combe House. Its exterior is symmetrical with five bays, topped by a pediment and a parapet above a moulded cornice. There are five plain square-headed openings on the front, which were presumably originally glazed. On the left (west) side, there is a Venetian window with glazing bars, while the center light features a sash window.

Inside, the floor is paved with large red tiles. Black Tom Putt and his wife, an heiress from Tiverton, were responsible for planting the pleasure grounds to the north of the house. An apple developed on the estate was named the Tom Putt apple. The building has group value with Combe House and its associated structures. The gardens at Combe are listed as grade II on the Register of Parks and Gardens of special historic interest in England.
