Beach Farmhouse

Beach Farmhouse is likely late 17th or early 18th century, although it is said to date after 1643. It is an "L"-shaped building. The exterior is rendered over rubble with stone quoins. The roof is now covered in modern pantiles, with gabled ends featuring copings and tall ashlar stacks with caps. There are two dormer gables with saddle stones to the front. The front elevation has two and a half storeys and three windows, with stone mullioned casements of two and three lights, each with a dripmould. A central door opening has a plain door within a wooden frame. It is likely that the symmetrical late 17th-century appearance of the front is a 19th-century restoration of a similar design. A long gabled extension wing projects to the rear, featuring a square stack and two-light stone mullioned windows with dripmoulds. A shorter, one-bay, two and a half-storey extension runs parallel to the rear wing.

Inside the rear extension, there is one original stop-chamfered door surround. The main section of the house has a four-bay roof, with end trusses supported on dormer walls.

The farmhouse occupies the site of, and may incorporate part of, a farm that was burned during the Battle of Lansdown in 1643.
