Description
Brook House is a farmhouse, likely built in the early 18th century, with later additions and alterations. It is constructed of uncoursed limestone rubble and has a graded slate roof. The original layout features a two-cell plan, with a bay added to the right in the early 19th century, indicated by a straight joint at the rear. The building has one storey and an attic, with windows on either side of a gabled timber porch that has boarded doors on both the inner and outer sides. To the left is a late 19th-century metal casement window, and to the right is a 20th-century casement window, both featuring inserted stone lintels. Above the porch are gabled eaves dormers, with another dormer to the right that also contains a metal casement window above a subsidiary door. The left side has a large integral end stack with dripstones, while the right side has a 19th-century red brick ridge stack, which may have once been an end stack. Inside, there are chamfered spine beams and joists in the two main ground-floor rooms, and a partly infilled inglenook fireplace on the left. An attached mid-19th-century outbuilding to the right is not considered to have special architectural interest.
