Description

Brook Farmhouse is a farmhouse that dates mainly from the early 17th century, with a 16th-century core and a later addition on the right side. It is timber framed and plastered, with the facade covered in colourwashed brick and a pantiled roof. The building has two storeys and an attic, featuring four windows that include various casements and one inset sash window on the left. There is a central boarded door and two internal stacks.

On the ground floor, the older part of the house has heavy unchamfered joists and two diamond-mullioned windows, which may indicate that it originally included the lower bay of an open hall. The early 17th-century addition shows exposed framing at the first floor level, retains the remains of one five-light diamond-mullioned window, and includes some original doors and floorboarding, as well as newel stairs. There is a gap of approximately 0.3 meters between the framing of the two sections.
