No idea if these were part of the house before its acquisition by the council or arrived after. Located to the south of the current Harvester public house with Image in view. Beech Hurst was originally a large Victorian house dating from the 1860s which was bequeathed along with its substantial grounds to the local council in 1946 for public recreational use. The council took over the property in 1950 and demolished the house around 1952 replacing it with a quadrangle and an attached tea room. The gardens include a miniature railway, bowling greens, petanque pistes, play areas and open green space and are popular with locals.
