Full Description

Luccombe Knap was surveyed by the National Trust in 1996. It is suggested the walled garden, stables and linhay were probably held with the house during the 18th Century. It was divided into two cottages in the late 18th or early 19th Century and is shown in this state on the 1842 Luccombe tithe map, with the walled garden separated. [1] Luccombe Knap is a 17th century former farmhouse with a walled garden and stables on the opposite side of the lane. [2]
