Description

Belarica Cottage and Beulah is a house row and shop that dates back to the 16th century, with alterations and extensions made in the 18th to 20th centuries. The building features a timber frame that is clad and extended with painted brick and tile hanging, topped with plain tiled roofs. The main section is two storeys high, set on a plinth, and has a hipped roof with gablets and a central stack. On the first floor, there are three wooden casements, while the ground floor has two wooden casements and a half-glazed central door with a flat hood supported by brackets.

To the right, the building is extended and partly overbuilt by Belerica Cottage, which is also two storeys tall, with the upper section tile hung. It has two wooden casements on the first floor and a 20th-century bow window on the ground floor, featuring a glazed door to the left. On the left side, Beulah retains a single-storey shop front with a pediment gable and a bowed window, which extends to the left with a two-storey block that has weatherboarding on the first floor and a 20th-century bowed window. At the rear, there are further hipped ranges, with an extension added in the late 20th century on the left side.
