Description
The Devonshire Arms is a public house located in Beeley, dating from the late 18th century to the early 19th century. It is constructed of coursed squared gritstone with gritstone dressings and quoins, topped with stone slate roofs. The east range features coped gables and moulded kneelers, along with ashlar gable stacks and a ridge stack. The building has two storeys and a north elevation that consists of two plus three bays. The three-bay section on the right has a plain first-floor band and a central ashlar porch with a shallow segmental pointed open arch, adorned with a moulded cornice. This porch is flanked by two-light square section flush mullion windows with small pane casements. Above, there are three similar two-light windows. The left part of the building has a central doorway with stone lintels and jambs, topped with a bracketed stone hood. To the left of the doorway is a two-light square section flush mullion window, with a similar window above, while to the right is a two-light casement in a flush stone surround, with a narrower small pane casement above. Curving ashlar walls with a coped top are attached to the north side, enclosing a narrow paved area.
