Description

Cayley Becks Farmhouse is a late 17th-century farmhouse that has been refenestrated. It is constructed of tooled sandstone with ashlar dressings and features a pantile roof. The building has a three-cell hearth-passage plan, which includes a staircase and a dairy outshut. It is two stories high with a three-window front. The entrance is a board door located in a chamfered quoined opening, positioned to the right of the center. Throughout the facade, there are three-light mullioned windows set in quoined openings. To the left of the door, the windows have small-pane casements on both floors, while those to the right of the center feature sashes between casements, with small-pane glass on the ground floor and large-pane glass on the first floor. The gables are coped, and there are shaped kneelers, along with end and right-of-center stacks. At the rear, there is a full-height outshut located to the right of center. Inside, there is a chimneypiece with a corbelled shelf in the ground floor room to the left of the cross passage.
