Beech Hill With Attached Coach House And Stable Courtyard

Beech Hill is a house with an attached coach house and stable courtyard, dating from approximately 1830, with extensions added in 1859. It was likely designed by Woodhead & Hurst for the Duke of Norfolk. The house is constructed of dressed stone with ashlar dressings and slate roofs, featuring crowstepped gables with kneelers and finials. It is built in a Tudor Revival style.

The north entrance front has an external stack and a projecting two-story porch with an arched doorway and double plank doors with ornate iron hinges. A three-light mullioned window sits above the door, with a chamfered parapet. Other windows on this front are cross-mullioned, some with Tudor hoodmoulds. A shield displaying the arms of the Duke of Norfolk is incorporated into the façade. A later single-story wing is on the left.

The west front features a projecting gable with three-light cross-mullioned windows on each floor, and a crenellated two-story canted bay window. The south front has a projecting gable with a thirty-two-light cross-mullioned window, a doorway with sidelights and an overlight, and a narrow gable with a tiny lancet window in the peak.

To the south-east, a brick wall connects to a glazed link building leading to a late 19th-century coach house. This is a single-story building with carriage doors and wooden cross casements. A further brick wall connects the coach house to an early 19th-century stable range, which is single-story with attics and features gabled dormers with round-headed through-eaves loft doors. A wall with gate piers bounds the south side of the stable courtyard.

The interior of the main rooms on the ground floor includes late 19th-century marble fireplaces.
