Description

The Beam Engine House in Thornton is a classical engine house dating from the late 18th to early 19th century. It stands three storeys high and consists of a single bay.

The north elevation has a door to the right at ground level. The east elevation features a door at the centre below a round-headed opening, along with another blocked round-headed opening at the second floor.
