Description

Harcombe is a pair of cottages that have been converted into a single dwelling. They date from the 18th century and were restored in the 20th century. The exterior is made of colourwashed random rubble with a thatched roof and trick stacks. The building is one and a half storeys high and features three dormer windows along with five 20th-century casement windows on the ground floor. There is also a 20th-century gabled porch, and the roof is covered with double Roman tiles, positioned to the left of centre. Harcombe is listed for its group value with Dorcas Cottage, which is located to the right.
