Description
Bengrove Farmhouse is a farmhouse marked as Bengrove House on the 6-inch Ordnance Survey map, dated and initialled 'I.M / I.M 16/28' on the dormer gable, and dates from the 18th to early 19th century. It is constructed of coursed squared and dressed limestone and rendered brick, with a roof of concrete tiles and slate, and features brick and ashlar stacks. The building has a 'T'-shaped plan with a later extension to the west gable end and a largely rebuilt north front. It is one and a half storeys tall and has a cellar.
The south front has a gable that projects forward to the right, featuring a three-light 20th-century steel casement window on the ground floor, and a three-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casement with a stopped hood above. There is also a three-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casement and the surround of a similar four-light window, which has been replaced with a 20th-century wooden casement with glazing bars on the ground floor of the main body. The upper floor has two Cotswold dormers with three-light double-chamfered stone-mullioned casements, and a datestone is set in the gable of the right-hand dormer. A 20th-century two-light raking dormer is located far left. Most windows on this front retain their early glass. A 20th-century plank door features a moulded semi-circular surround with panelled spandrels and a stopped hood, topped with flat coping. There is also a plank door leading to the later extension on the far left. The north front includes two, three, and four-light casements, some with segmental heads, and one cross window. A projecting lateral stack with twin shafts is located off the ridge.
Inside, there is an open fireplace with a bressumer, compartmented ceilings, and square-panelled timber-framed partition walls. A Tudor-arched opened fireplace with a wooden bressumer is present, along with moulded stops and stepped stops on the principal beams and joists. The lower part of the staircase retains two splat balusters and a pierced pointed finial.
