Description
Welbourn House is a farmhouse and outbuilding, now functioning as a house. It dates from the early 19th century but has earlier origins and has undergone later alterations and extensions. The building is constructed of squared chalk, which is now whitewashed, and features a pantile roof with brick stacks. It has a central staircase plan and is one room deep, with a later extension into the outbuilding on the left and a rear extension added. The house is two stories high with a three-window front. The central entrance consists of a half-glazed and panelled door with an overlight, set within a pilastered doorcase that has a corbelled-out cornice. The windows throughout are 4-pane sashes, and the ground floor windows have thin timber lintels. There are stacks at the end right and left of the centre.
