George Devey designed a large house, Coombe Warren, here in c1864 and all that remains is the lodge and wall. With Dutch-style shaped gables and prominent moulded chimneystacks. The wall is rubble below and brick above with diapering. Grade II listed. Devey liked to draw from local vernacular tradition when designing buildings. He built up an extensive country house practice.
