Coombe House was the home of John Graves Livingston, chairman of the Festiniog Railway Company. It was in Canford Lane, Westbury-on-Trym, Bristol. He lived there from at least 1877 until 1883. The house was old. It was present on the 1840 tithe map and survived until at least 1949 although by then modern 3-bedroom semi-detached houses had begun to be built in its grounds. It was demolished soon after and a council old peoples home built in the 1960s or 70s. This in turn was demolished circa 2020. The site is now empty but surrounded by a secure hoarding which still has a notice on it saying "DANGER Demolition in Progress".
