Description
North Kipscombe Farmhouse and attached shippon is a farmhouse with a shippon that dates from the late 16th century or 17th century, with extensions made in the 19th century. The building is constructed of stone rubble and has slate roofs, featuring a gable end on the right and a hipped end on the left. There are two stone rubble ridge stacks with drips, along with an additional brick stack located in front of the right side stack.
The layout follows a through-passage plan, with the shippon on the left side now having a separate entry, although it originally had access from the through-passage. The right side contains a hall and a heated inner room, with a two-storey dairy extension at the right end. The farmhouse is two storeys high, and the roof over the shippon end of the through-passage is at a lower level.
The façade features a three-window range of 19th to 20th century casements. The leftmost window has two lights, each with two panes, situated above a gabled stone porch that has an unmoulded pointed arched doorway, with seats on both sides of the inner plank door. To the left, there is a 19th century window with four narrow lights that illuminates the shippon. The upper end has a two-light window with four panes per light and a three-light window with three panes per light above two two-light windows with six panes per light, along with a 20th century window in the right end extension. There are lean-tos at the rear. Inside, there is a chamfered and stopped beam in the hall and a two-panelled door leading to the inner room. The lower end of the shippon has been rebuilt using breeze blocks.
