Witcombe Manor Farmhouse and Front Boundary Wall and Gateway

Witcombe Manor Farmhouse is a detached farmhouse dating from the 17th century, with one section possibly being older. It is constructed of ham stone ashlar and squared rubble, featuring a roof that is partly covered with asbestos cement slate and partly with Welsh slate, set between high stepped coped gables that suggest it may have originally had thatch. The building has brick and stone chimney stacks and stands two storeys high with five bays.

The windows are ovolo-moulded mullions set in wave-mould recesses, arranged as three, three, three, two, and two lights above, and four, two, four, and two lights below, with the last window positioned between the fourth and fifth bays. There is a continuous string course to the first and second bays, which continues and steps up over a flat-arched ovolo-moulded doorway located to the right of the second bay. The lower bays three and four/five have separate labels. Additional mullioned windows with hood moulds are present on the south gable.

Although the interior has not been seen, it is reported to contain deep-chamfered beams with step and run-out stops, an adapted cambered-arched fireplace in the north room, and 18th-century panelling in the middle room, which has an overlapping plank partition to the rear. The south room features scroll-stops on the beams and fireplace lintel. At the rear, there was once a detached kitchen and an agricultural building, separated from the farmhouse by a circular stone track for a horse engine.

About four metres east of the house, there is a near ashlar wall with thin angled coping, standing one metre high, with square piers that have plain plinths and pyramidal caps leading to a gateway opposite the door. This gateway features a pair of 19th-century wrought iron gates, all of which contribute to the setting of the farmhouse.
