Description

Beam Ends is a building originally consisting of a range of 18th to 19th century timber-framed and plastered cottages, which has now been converted into a single tenement. At the north end, there is a gabled wing made of plastered brick. The main block has one storey and attics, featuring casement windows, while the wing is two storeys high with double-hung sash windows that have glazing bars. The roof is tiled and hipped at the south end, with three flat-headed dormer windows. All the listed buildings surrounding The Green form a group, with Nos 8, 10, 38, 52, and 25 being buildings of local interest.

It experiences an average of 29 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 67% of listed buildings. Of these, 14 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
