Description
Beech House is a house built around 1800 and restored in the 20th century. It features a red brick construction with a stuccoed front and a stone slate roof. The house is two storeys high and has two windows. The first floor has three-light casements with glazing bars, while the ground floor has four-pane sash windows in exposed cases. On the left side, there is a single-storey wooden canted bay window. At the rear, there is a tall stair window with glazing bars and a segmental brick arch. To the right, there is a two-storey, two-bay red brick wing that is set back, which includes a door with an overlight on the left and segmental-arched openings. There is also a single-storey bay with round-arched recesses set back further to the left. The house has tall brick ridge stacks. The interior has not been inspected. Beech House was originally built as a woodman's house and later served as a gardener's house for the Temple Newsam estate, with records believed to date back to the 17th century.
