Description
Brook House Farmhouse is a late 16th century or early 17th century farmhouse that features a parallel range, including a staircase hall added to the west around 1800. A wing was constructed to the south-west around 1840. The building has two storeys, with the earliest section being timber-framed, rough-cast rendered, and topped with a plain tiled roof. There is a 19th century brick ridge stack.
On the west-facing elevation, there are four first floor hung sash windows with glazing bars, along with three similar ground floor windows and a half-glazed garden door. A verandah on the north and east sides has a wooden boarded and plain tiled roof supported by bracketed wooden posts. The 19th century wing to the south is made of rendered brick and has a shallow, hipped slate roof with end stacks. The eaves cornice features paired modillions.
The south-facing wing includes three first floor recessed hung sash windows with glazing bars, one horizontal sliding sash window, and one casement window, all flanking a closed porch. Inside, the farmhouse boasts an inglenook hearth, some exposed ceiling beams, and a fine canted open string staircase with slender twisted balusters.
