Description
Hoccombe House is a house from the early 19th century. It features roughcast over random rubble, with quoin strips and a concrete tiled roof. The building is two storeys high and has three bays, with 12-pane sash windows that have rendered voussoirs and keystones. There is a central gabled porch made of roughcast, which includes an early 20th-century door with marginal glazing bars and a fanlight, as well as early 20th-century coloured glass. At the rear, there is an outshut on the left side, and a gabled two-storey addition on the right side that faces the road, which likely originally contained a loft over a dairy.
