The 18th century farmhouse at the 408 acre Columbjohn Farm replaced an earlier 15th century one to the west which is now a pair of cottages. On the 1756 Killerton estate map, a house called 'Wilkes' is shown on the site of the present farmhouse and according to land tax assessments a new house was built in 1780. Many alterations and additions were in the the 19th and 20th centuries including a new kitchen and bay widowns. The two storey farmhouse was of a late three room cross passage plan with a rear lateral stack. Many original farm buildings survive including two threshing barns, granary, linhay and pigsties.
