Description

Brook Cottage is a house that likely dates from the 17th century. It is constructed from rendered and painted stone rubble and cob, topped with a rag slate roof featuring gable ends. The building has a projecting stone rubble end stack on the right, with a rendered brick shaft, and a brick shaft for the end stack on the left. The layout consists of two rooms with a cross or through passage plan, heated by the end stacks. There is a service wing that extends to the rear right, probably added in the 19th century. The exterior is two storeys high and features an almost symmetrical three-window front, with 20th-century windows set in earlier openings. A rendered gabled porch, likely from the 19th or 20th century, is flanked by two windows, with three additional windows above. The interior has not been inspected.
