Description

Belle Vue Farm House and the outbuilding immediately to the north-northwest date from 1832. The building features walls and a roof made of Purbeck stone and stands three storeys tall. The main front has an original doorway that is now blocked, with a date stone inscribed "T Cull 1832" positioned above it. There are two double-hung sash windows with glazing bars on both the ground and first floors, and two smaller double-hung sash windows on the second floor. A lean-to extension is located to the south, featuring a chimney stack that is partly stone and partly brick, along with a large buttress at the junction with the main house. The north elevation is rendered, and the porch and entrance are now located in this wall. To the west, there is a two-storeyed extension with rendered walls and a Purbeck slate roof. A small outbuilding to the north of the house has Purbeck stone walls, partly rendered, a Purbeck stone roof, and a brick stack, and it may have served as a bakehouse.
