Icomb Place is a medieval manor house on the edge of the village of Icomb, near Stow on the Wold in Gloucestershire. The word "place" in this context is thought to be a precursor of "palace".
The house is a Grade I listed building.
Mentioned in the Doomsday Book and owned by Roger de Lacy at the time, the house has undergone considerable alteration since its 11th-century beginnings with only the moat remaining. The house seems to have started out as a modest courtyard dwelling, but later was made grander by the creation of the great hall and remodelling of the solar . The building has many unusual features: for example, no room has a right angle on its plan view, all rooms being a trapezium in form.
