Description
Beckett’s Farmhouse is probably a 16th-century timber-framed house with 19th-century additions to the back right and left. A gabled wing at the centre of the back is likely from the 17th century. The older parts of the front are tile-hung above a red brick base with a diaper pattern of blue headers. The 19th-century additions are in red brick. The front entrance is two storeys high with two windows. The tiled roof is half-hipped on the right and features a large ridge stack with a cornice in several planes. There are 19th-century one-bar casement windows and a half-glazed door. A small two-storey addition is located in the angle of the 19th-century left wing.
