Description

Becks Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the early 19th century, with a core that is probably older. It is built of random rubble and features an M-shaped roof, with slate covering the front half and pantiles on the rear half. The house has coped verges and brick stacks. The symmetrical frontage consists of two storeys and three bays, with 20-pane sash windows that have stepped voussoirs. The central door opening contains a six-panelled door topped with a decorative fanlight and a semi-circular head opening, also with stepped voussoirs.
