Description
The Visitor Centre at Beechwood House is a three-storey building with five windows, featuring snecked masonry on the front and end elevations. It has a moderately pitched slate roof that is hipped over the right end, with oversailing eaves, exposed purlins, and bargeboards. The chimney stacks are also made of snecked masonry.
On the second floor, there are Victorian sash windows set under the eaves, with cemented reveals. The first floor has similar windows with stone lintels above. The ground floor on the right side has a Victorian shopfront that includes a moulded cornice supported by scrolled brackets, sunk panelled pilasters, a doorcase to the right, and a nine-pane shop window to the left, along with a rubble stallriser. To the left, there is a doorway and three sash windows, all with stone lintels.
The right end elevation, which faces "Y Bont Fawr," is also three storeys high with two windows. It features Victorian sash windows on the second and first floors, and a small shop window on the ground floor, along with a moulded cornice on scrolled brackets and a four-pane window, sunk panelled pilasters, and a rubble stallriser.
At the rear, the right corner is canted back to reveal a lower three-storey gabled extension that is set below the eaves of the main building, giving it a three-window elevation. This extension also has Victorian sash windows with stone lintels, and there is a similar extension to the right on the rear.
