Description

Beacon Farmhouse is a house dating from the 17th to early 18th century. The left gable features a timber frame on the first floor, with whitewashed brick infill and a whitewashed ground floor. The remainder of the building is covered in whitewashed render and roughcast. It has a steeply pitched slate roof and a 19th-century white brick chimney. The house is two storeys high and has two bays. The symmetrical ground floor includes canted bay windows with wooden glazing bars and hipped slate roofs. On the first floor, there are horizontal sliding sashes. At each end, there are flush-panelled doors topped with small flat hoods supported by shaped brackets. A lean-to is located at the rear. The farmhouse is included for its group value.
