Description
Brook House is a house built in the early 17th century. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond and features a plain tile roof. The building has two storeys and a plain brick eaves band, with a hipped roof. There are rear stacks to the left and additional stacks to the left and right of the centre. The front of the house has a regular arrangement of three windows, which include nine-pane sashes in open boxes. The ground floor has twelve-pane sashes with segmental heads. The central entrance features a half-glazed door set in an architrave, flanked by slender fluted pilasters, diamond paterae, and topped with a corniced hood. A trellised wooden porch with a leaded gabled roof, moulded bargeboards, and a pendant completes the entrance. To the left, there is a red brick lean-to with an eight-pane sash window and a plain-tile roof that is hipped to the front. The interior has not been inspected.
