Beauworth Cottage

Beauworth Cottage is a house dating from the late 17th century to early 18th century, featuring a three-bay design with a late 18th century dairy extension at the rear right, a mid-19th century gabled extension to the left, and a flat-roofed extension at the middle rear, creating an E-shape overall. The oldest section is constructed of red brick with grey headers on a brick plinth and has a tiled roof with a brick chimney stack. The house is two storeys high and originally had five windows, although one is now blocked. Most windows are wooden casements, but some old wooden pegged architraves remain, along with cambered head linings for all windows. There is a moulded wooden eaves cornice and a band between the floors. A large early 20th century porch made of brick and wood is located at the front. The mid-19th century extension is also of red brick, featuring a gable facing the road with bargeboards. The first floor has two casements with cambered head linings, and the ground floor includes a similar early 20th century brick, wood, and glazed porch. The rear elevation has a mid-19th century flat-roofed two-storey extension. The oldest part of the house contains one 16-pane sash window with a moulded architrave and a casement window with an old mullioned surround. The late 18th century gabled dairy extension to the left is brick and rendered with a tiled roof and 19th century windows. Inside, the lounge features exposed wall framing with diagonal tension braces and a ceiling with a moulded axial beam. There is a brick chimney with a wooden bressumer and a curved hood, similar to the chimney in the central room. The kitchen has a chamfered spine beam with run-out stops. The dairy extension conceals an old boarded back door, likely from the late 17th century.
