Details
WINKLEIGH HOLLOCOMBE TOWN SS 61 SW 6/181 Unoccupied house immediately to north-east of Hollocombe Barton II Unoccupied house now used as farm building and store. Late C16 or early C17, abandoned as a house in early to mid C20. Partly rubble and partly cob walls. Gable-ended corrugated iron roof. Front lateral stack, of coursed rubble with dripmoulds. Plan: originally likely to have been 3-room-and-through-passage plan but what seems to have been the lower room to the right was virtually demolished when the house was abandoned and a new one built a short distance away. The passage remains but its rear door is blocked. The hall is heated by a front lateral stack, with an adjoining newel staircase between it and the passage. Unusually there are signs that the stairs continued up to a 2nd floor. Exterior: 2 storeys. Asymmetrical front with doorway to right at front of leanto (passage reduced in height) and recessed to form porch in front with seat to either side. Early C20 plank door. To its left is original 2-light very deep chamfered wooden mullion window with stone hoodmould above. C20 inserted wide doorway at left end of front wall. Interior: hall has chamfered and step-stopped axial beam. Rough cambered wooden lintel to fireplace. Solid oak newel stairs adjoining which rise partly up to a 2nd flight. C17 chamfered wooden doorframe at head of 1st flight of stairs. Similar doorframe between hall and inner room. The inner room has chamfered ogee stopped cross beams. This is an interesting survival of what must have been quite an important house still with a number of good features preserved.
