About

About Chambercombe Manor

Chambercombe Manor is a Tudor farm house located near Ilfracombe, Devon, which dates back to the late 15th/early 16th century. Laid out in a classic three room and cross passage, with later additions of a cross range, probably 17th century, two further ranges, and various outbuildings for agricultural use.

Significant architectural features include a stunning example of a very large, well preserved lime ash floor in the main hall, evidence of a significantly raised (c1m) bay also within the main hall (extremely unusual, if not unique), and a small double courtyard plan (placing it among a small number of medieval and modern farm and small manor houses with this characteristic).
