Description
Beeches is a house built in the early 19th century on an earlier foundation. It features a chequered pattern of red and grey brick set on a flint plinth, with the lower side walls made of flint and rubble. The roof is plain tiled and hipped, with chimney stacks located at the rear right and a projecting end on the left. The building has a regular arrangement of windows, with two wooden casements on each floor, and the ground floor has a central boarded door. There is a catslide outshot at the rear left.
