Description
Bedfield House is a former farmhouse dating from the 16th century, with alterations made in the 19th century. The building is timber framed, with the front covered in roughcast render and the rest plastered. The roof is tiled, featuring plain tiles on the front and pantiles on the rear. It likely has a two-cell layout, with two storeys and an attic. The house has three mid to late 19th-century small-paned casement windows, which have shallow cinquefoil-cusped heads and wooden hoodmoulds. The left side features larger windows, with the upper one positioned higher. There is a lobby entry with a 19th-century gabled porch and a four-panel door, where the upper panels are glazed to match the windows. An internal stack is located almost centrally, with a plain oblong shaft; the lower part is original while the upper part is from the 19th century. The left gable end has matching windows. The interior has not been examined.
