Description

Barcombe is a detached house that was formerly two cottages, dating from the early 16th century. It was undergoing extensive renovation at the time of the survey in 1982. The building is constructed of stone rubble and features a concrete tile roof with gabled ends. It has two storeys and a three-window range, with 20th-century casements that include glazing bars. There are also two flat roof dormers and a 20th-century glazed door. The house has end chimney stacks, one made of brick and the other of ashlar with a cap stone. A tablet on the rear wall reads "A Stark 1763." At the back, there is a 20th-century glazed one-storey extension. Inside, the house features jointed cruck trusses, although only one remains. There is a timber frame screen on the first floor with cambered head doorways that have stopped chamfered jambs. The fireplace includes a chamfered bressummer and stopped and chamfered stone jambs.
