Luscombe Farmhouse

Devon

Luscombe Farmhouse is a substantial listed building of historic significance, graded II* by Historic England. Its origins likely lie in the medieval period, though the structure visible today reflects centuries of adaptation and change as farming families modified and maintained their home to suit changing needs and circumstances on the moor.

The farmhouse sits within Dartmoor's working landscape, part of the network of settlements and holdings that have shaped the moorland for generations. Like many heritage farms across the park, it stands as evidence of how people have lived with and from Dartmoor's land over the long term, adapting to the demands of upland agriculture and the seasons.
