The Beeches Farmhouse Approximately 100 Metres West Of Folly Lane Junction

The Beeches Farmhouse, located approximately 100 metres west of the Folly Lane junction in Claxton, dates to the 18th century. It is a whitewashed brick farmhouse with a steeply pitched roof covered in black glazed pantiles. The building is arranged over two storeys and an attic, following a lobby entrance plan. The windows are irregular, featuring 2 and 3-light casements. The ground floor openings have segmental heads. An off-centre gabled porch provides access via a 4-panel door and features a semicircular fanlight. The porch gable is finished with a parapet and decorative eaves corbels. A platband runs around the floor level, and the gable ends have platbands at their bases. A square axial brick stack has a rendered base. There are attic casements in the gables, and a ground floor sash window with glazing bars in the west gable. A rear lean-to section is covered with slate and includes two tall red brick chimney stacks. A gabled, single-storey range, also pantiled, extends to the south.
