The house Miscombe is alongside the site of Miscombe Gate Portesham
Hill.
Miscombe Gate was the Turnpike gate in Portesham for collection of
tolls.
Requiring further refurbishment, the house is stone built
local Portesham stone and indigenous sarsens
of 18c origins, with later, brick additions.
Main roof is tiled.
The Sarsen stones are incorporated into the foundations of the
house itself, in places
and are also a feature of the garden, on the southern boundary,
fronting Rocky Lane.
Scope for remodelling.
Great Potential.
Various extension permutations upgrade scenarios.
All internal upstairs room partitions are stud walling.
