Description
Beech House is a house dating from the 17th century, significantly renovated in 1977. It is timber-framed, with ogee braces to the left gable, diagonal braces to the right gable, and rectangular panels to the front. The infill between the timbers is rendered and colourwashed, with a brick plinth at the base. The roof is tiled, and a central chimney stack is constructed of 17th-century brick, although it has been rebuilt. The house is two storeys high and has two bays. It contains 20th-century leaded casement windows, a two-light window on the left and a three-light window on the right. A 20th-century door leads into a link to a 20th-century extension to the right, which has a half-hipped roof. There is also a small single-storey brick extension to the left. Inside, the house features a restored moulded spine beam and curved wind braces within the roof structure.
