Description

Misbrooks Farm is a hall house dating from the 15th century, with extensions from the 17th and 19th centuries. It features a timber frame, with the lower part clad in white-washed brick and fishscale tile hanging above, topped by a Horsham slab roof. Originally consisting of two halls, the building now has an H-shaped plan with flush fronted gable ends on the wings that extend back to the left.

The house is two storeys high, with a corbelled stack on the left and a 17th-century stack on the right at the angle with the wing. The front has two central leaded casement windows and one window to the first floor on the left, along with an attic window on the right above two first-floor and one ground-floor window. There is a Horsham slab pentice on the ground floor to the left, featuring one ground-floor window and another window to the right of centre. The door is located to the left of centre under the continuation of the pentice.

On the right-hand return front, there is a framed pentice with a tall stack above. The left-hand return front has two framed bays with tension braces on the first floor. At the rear left, a single-storey sandstone block passage links to a barn, which is placed parallel to the main house.
