Not the house as it was in the 1800's, which is what you're asking for, I think, but
is this perhaps it nowadays? Described as 19th century farmhouse. (Obviously modernised.)

Or maybe (as Higher Hendham Farm was clearly a large farm with lots of buildings, and therefore perhaps quite a posh farmhouse):

Searching on Google Streetview specifically for Higher Hendham Farm only lets you see various converted & modernised barns and farm cottages.

Hi,
I am a descendant of William Luscombe of this farm in Devon. I would really love to get a photo of the original farm house that my family would have lived in during the 1800's, also of any other buildings and farmland. I have tried on Google earth and found it really confusing.

King regards
Sheryl
