Bedford House

Bedford House is a Grade II listed building made of stone, with a rendered and lined front and a hipped concrete tile roof from the 20th century. The house originally started as a small two-bay structure with a gable stack, which was later incorporated into a larger house built in the late 18th century. The main elevation, which has four bays, faces east and features three symmetrical bays on the right with a central entrance leading to the stair hall, and an additional bay on the left beyond a central stack. The entrance consists of a six-panelled door with a plain overlight, set within a 20th-century porch designed in an Ionic style. The ground floor has sixteen-paned sash windows with cast iron sills. The eaves are boxed. On the north face, there are two bays with similar sixteen-pane sash windows on the upper floor, while the ground floor windows have been replaced by 20th-century hipped canted bays. There is a central stack, and various 20th-century additions have been made to the rear of the building.
