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.
