Lower Webbery Farmhouse

Lower Webbery Farmhouse is a disused farmhouse located in Bishop's Nympton, dating from the late 17th century or earlier. The building features whitewashed rendered cob on stone rubble footings and has a slate roof that is hipped at the right end and gabled at the left end. Inside, there are back-to-back fireplaces in an axial stack to the right of the center. The main range, which faces southwest, is single depth and three rooms wide. The left end room is unheated and may have been added later, while the two rooms on the right are heated from the fireplaces in the axial stack. The front door opens directly into the center room.

At the rear, there are two outshuts: the left one is made of cob, while the right one is constructed of stone and brick with an asbestos roof. The right outshut appears to be a 19th-century kitchen or back kitchen, as it has a stack against the rear wall of the house. The carpentry in the center room is from the 17th century, but the position of the front door may have been altered in the 18th or 19th century.

The exterior of the farmhouse is two storeys high and has an asymmetrical three-window front, featuring a 19th-century plank front door and small pane timber casements from the 19th century, except for a 20th-century replacement window on the ground floor left, likely set in an earlier embrasure. Although the interior was not inspected, it is noted to retain a chamfered crossbeam in the center room and a mid-19th-century chimney-piece in the right-hand room, with other interesting features likely still present. The farmhouse is part of a good group with the farm buildings nearby. It has reportedly been disused for 15 years, and access was impacted by the construction of the North Devon link road at the time of the survey.
