Description
Beech House is an early 19th-century house constructed of brown brick in a Flemish bond pattern, with a slate roof. It is situated in the village of Church Minshull. The main house is two storeys and an attic, with three bays, and is adjoined by a two-storey, one-bay wing to the south, creating an L-shaped plan. There is a modern, part-glazed door set within an old frame, featuring a rectangular transome light. The windows are flush casements with glazing bars, set within cambered brick arches that have brick keys. A small, hexagonal bay window is located on the west side, with glazing bars, a moulded timber cornice, and a hipped roof finished with lead rolls. A three-course-deep brick band runs along the first floor. The rear wing (south) incorporates multi-glazed casements and a timber-boarded porch with a slate lean-to roof. Gable end stacks are present. Internally, the doors have four fielded panels and are hung on "H" hinges. The ground floor and first floor feature slender, chamfered beams. A dog-legged staircase has turned balusters.
