Brook End and Brookside Cottage

This is a house, originally built as four cottages and now divided into two dwellings. The core of the building dates to the early 17th century, with a significant extension added in the mid-17th century and later additions and alterations. The structure is timber-framed with plaster and painted brick infill, topped by an oak shingle roof. The original design consisted of three framed bays, which was expanded to the right in the mid-17th century by a further two bays. It is a single-storey building with an attic.

The timber framing shows square panels with short, straight tension braces above the girding beam in the early 17th-century portion, while the extension has larger rectangular panels. The ground floor of the earlier portion has largely been rebuilt in brick. The right gable end features a collar and tie-beam truss with two vertical struts. The window placement is irregular; late 19th-century and 20th-century casement windows alternate with boarded doors on the left side (Brook End), which also includes two dormers with horizontal sliding sash windows. Brookside Cottage has late 19th-century windows to the left and right of a late 20th-century brick lean-to porch, and two horizontal sliding sash windows in a wide, raking eaves dormer. A brown brick ridge stack is located to the right of the centre, directly above what was formerly an infilled doorway, and there are internal brick end stacks to the left and right. The interior has not been inspected but is likely to contain features of interest.
