Pound House About 15 Metres North Of Narracombe Farmhouse

Pound House is built into the hillside to the north of Narracombe Farmhouse and features a separate, two-storey compartment at the south end. It dates from the 19th century or possibly earlier. The structure is made of granite rubble with large, roughly-squared granite block dressings and has a hipped slate roof at both ends.

The south gable wall has only one opening, which is a segmental-headed doorway in the ground storey, featuring an arch made of voussoirs. Above this doorway, the compartment has large barn doors in the side wall. To the left of these barn doors is another wide doorway leading into the main pound house, with a matching doorway on the opposite wall. There is also a single small window with a wooden lintel to the left of this doorway.

Inside the pound house, much of the old wooden apple-crusher remains, fixed to the floor of the storage loft above, although the cider press has been removed.
