Beckgate Head Attached Barn And Gategarth

Beckgate Head is an attached barn and gategarth, likely built in the 18th century. The structure is made of stone rubble, with the house section roughcast and a slate roof. The west facade features two storeys and three bays, with sash windows that include glazing bars; the window in the central bay on the first floor is narrower than the others. The entrance in the central bay has a gabled porch with an arched opening, which is now glazed, leading to a six-panel inner door. The barn on the left projects forward and has quoins, with a segmental-headed entrance that includes an arch and pivoted doors, as well as entrances for a cow-house on either side. There is a cross-axial stack and a gable-end stack. The south facade displays wide verges at the gable and part of a former corbelled stack, along with a sash window. The gategarth is recessed to the right and consists of four irregular bays, featuring sash windows with vertical glazing bars and horns; two of the ground floor windows have dripstones. The entrance to the third bay includes a gabled porch with a segmental arched opening and benches, along with a narrow stair window to the left. The interior has not been inspected.
