Upper Farmhouse With Stableblock

Upper Farmhouse with stableblock is a farmhouse and adjoining stableblock dating from the mid to late 17th century. The farmhouse features square-panelled timber-framing with rendered infill, set on a coursed squared and dressed limestone plinth. The roofing is made of concrete and red tiles, which was probably originally thatched. There is a stump of an ashlar stack that has been rebuilt in brick. The stable is constructed from coursed squared and dressed limestone and has a red tile roof. The main body of the farmhouse has a rectangular plan with a later lean-to extension at the rear, and the stableblock is located at the left gable end of the main body.

The house is 1½ storeys tall, while the stable is 2 storeys. The west front has a gable that is off-centre to the left, featuring a 20th-century two-light wooden casement window at the far left, an early 19th-century canted bay window with three 12-pane sashes, a plank door with a thumb latch, and a pair of 20th-century casements. There are two 2-light eaves dormers with 20th-century casements flanking a steeply pitched gable that has a slightly canted 20th-century three-light casement. The entrance is now accessed via a plank door towards the right end of the stable block, which has two plank doors and three 2-light casements.

Inside the house, there are beams with stepped stops, an open fireplace with a bressumer beam, and a carved face within an alcove to the left of the fire. The stableblock features beams with run-out stops. This property is part of the Witcombe Estate.
