Description
Coombe Farmhouse is a house from the 17th century that has been altered over time. The right bays feature a timber frame with whitewashed render over brick infill, while the left bay is similarly rendered. It has an old tile roof and a large brick chimney situated between the left bays, with an external chimney on the left side. The house is one storey with an attic and consists of three bays. It has two and three-light wooden casements, with those on the first floor located in gabled eaves-line dormers. There is a board door to the right of the left bay and another entry in a lean-to on the right. At the rear of the right bay, there is a 19th-century two-storey extension with a slate roof, along with a later single-storey small extension at the back of the lean-to.
