Brook Place

Brook Place is a house dating to 1656, constructed in an Artisan Mannerist style. It is built of brown and red brick with plain tiled roofs. The house is two storeys high with attics in shaped gables, one of which is located to the right of the centre on the street front, featuring a three-light window beneath a date plaque. A brick plinth runs along the base, with a stringcourse positioned above the ground floor and again over the first floor's centre and left side. A large, square, quadruple stack rises from the junction of the wings towards the centre of the roof, with a further double stack at the rear left. The windows are wooden framed with leaded casements, displaying five across the first floor and two within a projecting gabled bay, set beneath gauged brick heads. Five windows are present on the ground floor. A single-storey brick porch, with a small, steep Dutch gable, is situated to the left of centre, incorporating an arched entrance and a planked and studded door. The left-hand return front exhibits two shaped gabled bays, the right of which has a triangular pediment. Casement fenestration is irregular, with one window cutting into a plat band. Two gables are visible at the rear, alongside a single-storey, square bay with a flat roof and a stone-dressed window on the ground floor to the far right.
