Shippon at Lurcombe Farm, About 25 Metres North West of Farmhouse

The shippon at Lurcombe Farm, located about 25 metres north-west of the farmhouse, is a shippon and root house with a storage room above, which was in the process of being converted into flats in 1985. It was built in 1851, as indicated by a datestone. The structure is made of stone rubble consisting of roughly squared stones, with windows, doorways, and quoins made of dressed Devonian limestone. The roof is slated and hipped at both ends, and the building has two storeys.

The windows and doorways feature segmental arches, with the windows fitted with 20th-century wooden casements. There are three wide doorways on the ground floor, with the right-hand doorway reduced in width and a window added. Above the middle doorway is a small stone tablet carved with the initials GBE and the date 1851. On the second storey, to the left of this doorway, there is a loading door. Just below the eaves, a continuous band of pigeon-holes made of red brick can be seen. A flight of stone steps against the right-hand gable wall leads to a large doorway on the second storey.

Inside, the shippon features a kingpost-and-ridge roof. At the rear, there is a pit that was once used for a water-wheel. In 1856, the farm was owned by G B Ellicombe, Esq, as recorded in the Devon Record Office. The shippon has significant group value with Lurcombe Farmhouse.
