Description
This is the north part of the west wing of a house at Beachborough Park, dating to 1813 and designed by Sir James Drake Brockman, although it may incorporate an earlier structure. The building is rendered with a slate roof.
The west elevation has a plain stone-coped parapet above a moulded rendered cornice. The roof is hipped to the north. A central bell cupola with a pyramidal roof and weathervane is a prominent feature, and there is a painted gable end stack to the right. The facade features a regular arrangement of five windows: four recessed six-pane sashes, and a central eight-pane sash. The ground floor has taller twelve-pane sashes. There is a blank area toward the left end of the elevation, which is longer than that towards the right. The central door consists of two fielded panels and a semi-circular fanlight with radiating glazing bars. Two fire insurance plaques are positioned above the door.
A short return wing to the right contains a sundial with a segmental pediment, dated 1813, which was originally part of the demolished main range of the house. A long, single-storey painted brick range with a slate roof extends along the left gable end, and a single-storey flat-roofed addition is found on the right gable end. This wing was formerly part of a larger H-plan house; the central range of which was destroyed by fire in the 1950s. The interior has not been inspected.
