Holbrook Hall

Holbrook Hall is an early 18th-century house with later 19th and 20th-century alterations and additions, alongside an attached 17th-century cottage that was altered in the 18th and 19th centuries. The house is constructed of ashlar sandstone with sandstone dressings. It features a plinth, rusticated stone quoins, a plain first-floor band, a moulded eaves cornice, a hipped plain tile roof with lead flashings, and rendered ridge stacks. The 19th-century additions have similar roofs, with one to the south incorporating an external stone side wall stack and a plain band. The attached 17th-century cottage has a plain tile roof and a rendered brick gable stack. The main house is two stories plus attics, while the remainder of the house is two stories.

The garden elevation has five bays with further two-bay additions to either side, and a two-bay 17th-century cottage attached to the north of the northern addition. A semi-circular stone staircase leads to a central, shouldered doorcase with a moulded segmental pediment. The doorcase has a moulded fillet, rusticated strips, and a full-height glazing bar sash window. Pairs of tall glazing bar sashes are placed on either side of the doorcase, set within raised surrounds with staff moulding. Above the sashes are further glazing bar sashes in flush surrounds with raised moulding, the central window featuring a shouldered surround, rusticated strips, and a raised keystone. A moulded segmental pediment rises into the eaves above the central window. Two full gabled dormers with glazing bar sashes are located in the roof above.

The 19th-century addition to the north has two tripartite glazing bar sashes below flat stone arches, a matching window above, and the 19th-century addition to the south has balustraded parapets to the single-story bay in the southeast corner, and a south elevation with two full-height windows in shouldered surrounds and segmental pediments. The rear elevation incorporates a doorcase in an 18th-century style.

The 17th-century cottage, attached to the north of the northern addition, features a 3-light flush mullion window to the south and a 19th-century doorcase and door to the north, along with two 3-light casement windows in recessed and chamfered surrounds above. A 20th-century garage with pointed Gothick type windows is beyond to the north.

Inside the house, a reused 18th-century staircase displays turned balusters and there are two fireplaces in an 18th-century style. The property was formerly the seat of the Reverend W. Leeke, who claimed to have carried the colours of the 52nd Foot at Waterloo and published books asserting the honor of the decisive charge during that battle belonged to his regiment.
