Description

Grosvenor House and Leigh House, located at Nos 51 and 53 on the north side of Wycombe End in Beaconsfield, date back to the 18th century. The buildings are constructed of red-brown brick and feature an old tile roof with a moulded wooden eaves cornice. They stand two storeys tall, with the first floor showcasing six sash windows and one blocked-in window.

The ground floor of No 51 has an entrance with a wooden doorcase supported by Roman Doric pilasters and a cornice, along with one sash window. No 53 has an entrance with an altered pedimented doorcase and two sash windows on each side. All windows are fitted with glazing bars. Notably, No 51 displays the year 1830 in bottle-ends on a rear wing. A wrought iron bracket with a hanging sign is positioned on the first floor between the third and fourth windows from the left. Inside, No 53 features contemporary panelling and cupboards in one of its ground floor rooms.
