Farmhouse, now 2 cottages. Early C17, possibly earlier, with
various later alterations. Plastered cob and stone rubble;
stone rubble chimneyshafts topped with brick; thatched roof.

alterations when converted to cottages. The passage was
probably left (south-east) of centre and south-east end room
has large projecting gable-end stack. Centre room, the former
hall, has projecting front lateral stack and north-west end
room has end stack.
EXTERIOR: 2 storeys with later rear block and lean to outshuts
each end. Irregular 4-window front of various C19 and C20
timber casements, the older ones containing leaded glass. The
left cottage doorway is early C17 with moulded oak frame
containing fine contemporary studded plank door with applied
12-panel front and ornamental strap hinges. C20 hood continued
from roof of projecting hall bay adjacent to right. Right
cottage door (to Orchard View) contains C19 door. Roof is
gable-ended to left and half-hipped to right.
INTERIOR: Inspection limited to ground-floor left end where
passage blocked by C19 stair, fireplace has C19 chimneypiece
and crossbeam has plain chamfers. Original carpentry and other
features are suspected, much of it covered by later plaster.
Lanscombe Farm and Orchard View form part of an exceptionally
attractive group of listed buildings in an unspoilt village
and the adjacent Cockington Park.
