Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: Beaumont House, Plymouth. From http://www.nash.co.uk/about_historyofbeaumont.htm : "Beaumont House is that rare survivor in an inner city area, a gentlemen's residence in its own wall enclosed park ... Since the last private owner died the house has been the borough museum, a chest clinic, and is now the offices of Nash & Co, a firm of solicitors ... We first know of Beaumont House from two bills of sale. That of 1785 only offered 'a newly-built barn, stable and garden plot'. In 1820 a dwelling house was included. The vendor each time was the manor of Sutton Pill, and the leasees the Julians, a Plymouth family rather given to property dealing. In 1820 the buyer was Thomas Bewes, the price £750 ... It was probably he who added the east wing to the original eighteenth century centre block. At this time the name Beaumont House first appears; probably chosen by Thomas. The House still commands a pleasant view of Sutton Harbour and the Hoe; in those days the foreground was far less developed."
The house stands at the south-west corner of 1042981, which owes its existence to Bewes' son. |
