On the west side of New Street, opposite Victoria Street, the large 3-storey town house dates from 1766. A nearby information board describes it as a Palladian mansion built of fine limestone ashlar, formerly owned by the Wood-Mason family, wealthy local clothiers. Beacon House was Grade I listed (the highest category) in 1955.
