Lillibrooke Manor

Lillibrooke Manor is a hall house, largely rebuilt in the late 16th century, with extensions dating to the 19th and mid-20th centuries. It originally comprised three framed bays with a probable crosswing, and now has a U-shaped plan with a mid-20th century extension on the north-east gable. The building is constructed of timber framing, now encased in brick, with some sections in English bond and others in Flemish bond, and has old tile gabled roofs. It has two storeys, a cellar, and attics, with four chimneys. Modern diamond-leaded casement windows are prominent.

The west front, which serves as the entrance, has four bays and three gables. The facade is mostly brick, with some exposed timber framing in the central gable. The left gable is irregular with five small single-light windows. The right-hand gable projects forward, featuring a single 2-light window on the first floor and a projecting gable chimney to the right of this. The second bay features a 2-light window on the first floor and a 3-light window below. The central gable to the right has a 3-light and a 2-light window on the first floor, and a plank entrance door beneath a gabled porch. Evidence of an original jettied design remains on this gable, including a section of a moulded jetty beam.

The east front, overlooking the garden, has five bays with gabled end bays. It has a chamfered brick plinth and a brick string course on the left gable and central section. A slightly projecting bay on the left has three-light windows with mullions and transoms on each floor. A 20th-century garden door is positioned to the right, featuring a segmental head and a shield plaque. The right bay projects forward with a 3-light window on the first floor and a 2-light window on the ground floor. A tall chimney is visible on the left-hand return. The centre section exhibits some exposed timber framing in a slightly recessed area on the first floor and has three 2-light windows on the first floor and two 2-light and one 3-light windows on the ground floor.

Inside, the house contains 17th-century panelling and a 17th-century brick fireplace with a chamfered opening in the principal bedroom. A 17th-century newel stair rises from the bathroom, adjoining the principal bedroom, to the attic. The roof structure is now a side purlin roof; however, evidence of an earlier collar purlin roof, including collars and mortices in tie beams that would have supported crown posts, remains in the centre section.
