Camelot

Camelot is a 17th-century house situated in a row along the High Street in Queen Camel. The building is constructed from local lias stone, laid in varying courses, with dressings of Ham stone. It has a double Roman clay tile roof punctuated by brick end chimney stacks and coped gables, with a 20th-century coping likely replacing a former pediment over the slightly projecting central bay. The facade features ovolo-mould mullioned windows, originally with square labels. The outer bays have four-light windows, while the upper bay is deeper, with transoms, and is paired with matching two-light windows above a moulded, cambered arched doorway. The doorway has a 20th-century door protected by a deep stone lintel and hood mould. Reports suggest the possibility of surviving ovolo-moulded partitions within the house.
