HISTORY Historically the house was part of Parkfield Colliery and owned by Handel Cossham, a British colliery owner and politician. Coal was reached in 1853 and was of good quality. Handel Cossham passed away in 1890 and the mine was sold to Bristol United Collieries. 1914 saw a new owner, Sir Frank Beauchamp CBE an industrialist who owned mines in Somerset. He was the first Baronet of the Beauchamp Baronetcy and a city counsellor for 39 years. One of the mines chimneys still stands in the grounds today and can be seen from the house and formal gardens.

Upstairs are four double bedrooms, each enjoying a lovely outlook over the beautiful grounds and woods and a family bathroom. The house features lots of exposed wood throughout and also benefits from a large accessible basement providing the opportunity for further accommodation.
