Description
Beck House Farmhouse is an early 19th-century house constructed of rendered rubble with a slate roof. The building features a symmetrical design with gable stacks and chamfered quoins. It stands two storeys high with an attic and has three bays. All the windows are double sashes with glazing bars, separated by square stone mullions and framed with plain stone surrounds, except for the window above the door, which is a single sash. The front door is adorned with a moulded architrave and a cyma moulded cornice hood. At the rear, there is a wing that includes 17th-century rebated and chamfered window surrounds, which may have been reused. The east wall of this wing features a tall stair window with small panes and plain reveals, as well as a blocked doorway that has jambs with cyma moulding continuing around a shaped lintel inscribed '1681 RB'.
