Description

Walcombe House is a house dating from the 17th century and 18th century, with later alterations. It is constructed of rubble and features a triple-Roman tile roof with coped verges and brick stacks. There is a range at the rear that is thatched and has a thatched cupola. The building has a single storey and attic, as well as two storeys, and consists of four bays. To the left of the ground floor, there is a three-light stone mullioned window, while the other windows are casements with leaded lights and 20th-century metal casements. The central gabled porch has a half-glazed door and a two-light Gothick window.
