Description
Beck House is a farmhouse located on Digby Beck Street, dating from the late 17th century, with later additions from the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of coursed limestone rubble and brick, featuring ashlar dressings. It has a 20th-century pantile roof with ashlar coped gables, a single ridge, and two gable brick stacks. The structure has flush ashlar quoins and brick dentilated eaves, and it is a single storey plus attic in height, designed in an L-plan with a small two-storey 20th-century brick addition to the east that is of no special interest.
The south garden front displays an off-centre pair of double doors beneath a concrete lintel. To the left is a small 20th-century fixed light, followed by a pair of 20th-century glazed double doors. To the right, there is a three-light casement, and beyond that, a doorway featuring a 20th-century glazed door. All these openings are topped with wooden lintels. Above, there are three raking dormers, each with a two-light casement and brick cheeks.
On the north street front, there is a projecting eastern gabled wing, which has a single two-light 20th-century casement above. The western side wall features a two-light 20th-century casement under a flat rubble hood, with a two-light raking dormer above, also with brick cheeks. The main north front has a glazed door to the left and two two-light 20th-century casements under wooden lintels to the right and above. There are also two two-light raking dormers with brick cheeks.
