DESCRIPTION – MAIN HOUSE<br />
Beechfield Tower includes a fine example of a Northumbrian Pele<br />
tower, origins of which date back to the medieval times. The Pele<br />
tower, with its fabulous crenellations has been successively enlarged<br />
over time to form the magnificent manor house seen today. It is<br />
constructed of traditional Northumberland stone under a slate roof.<br />
The principal rooms on the ground floor are the great hall, drawing<br />
room, dining room, galleried library, morning room, kitchen, billiard<br />
room and music room.<br />
The current owner’s construction of a magnificent double height Great<br />
Hall in the baronial style with a double pitched oak roof with exposed<br />
trusses has created the centrepiece around which the house flows.
