The Beeches, 23 Church Hill, Killinchy, [near Killinchy village], Co Down, BT23 6PP

Relatively plain two storey gabled farm house of c.1861, extended at the rear in recent times. The W facade originally contained the front entrance to this house, but it was replaced with a large-ish Georgian paned sash window recently. The outline of the doorway is still discernible below this window. To the left of the doorway is a similar (but slightly smaller) sash window, with two more to the right of the doorway. To the first floor are four unevenly spaced windows, similar to before but much smaller. The N gable has a sash window (as before) to the left on the ground floor and a smaller ‘tilt’ window (with Georgian panes) to the centre left on the first floor. The S gable appears to have had a conservatory attached to it until recently, the outline of which can still be discerned. To the right on the ground floor is a glazed door. To the right on the first floor is a ‘tilt’ window, as N gable. The S gable merges into the S face of a lean-to projection at the rear. To the left of centre at the rear is a large single storey gabled return. The gable of this return contains a glazed door with sash window (much as before) to the left. To both the N and S faces of the return is a broad sash window (much as before). Joined to the N face of the return, and to the rear of the main house, is a recent flat roofed conservatory. To the left of the return (on the rear facade of the lean-to section attached to the main house) is a small sash window. The facade of the main house is finished in pebbledash render, with plain render to the return. Both main and return roofs have Bangor blue slates, with three rendered chimney stacks to the main roof (unevenly spaced). PVC rw goods. Covered well at the end of lane at rear of house.
