Description
Brown Beck Farmhouse and the adjoining barns date from the late 17th century. The farmhouse features painted roughcast walls, while the barns are constructed of slate rubble, all covered by graduated greenslate roofs with rendered chimney stacks. The building is two storeys high and has two bays, with a barn to the right under a common roof and a lower barn to the left.
Inside, there is a plain boarded floor beneath a wooden lintel within a 17th-century gabled stone porch that includes side seats. The windows are fixed-pane with glazing bars, and there is a smaller kitchen window on the ground floor to the right. The barn on the right has plank doors flanking an upper-floor casement window, while the barn on the left features large double plank doors. There is also a lean-to woodshed at the extreme left. The interior includes an inglenook with a firebeam, beamed ceilings, and a built-in 17th-century court cupboard, as well as an internal rear semicircular stone staircase.
