Description

Brook Farmhouse is a 17th-century farmhouse constructed from rubble stone, featuring Bridgwater tile roofs. It has an end wall stack on the northeast wing and a ridge stack on the rear southwest wing. The building is two storeys high and has an L-plan layout, with a late 18th-century southwest wing added later.

The original house includes cyma-moulded mullion windows typical of the 18th century. The main range has a two-light window on each floor, with a hoodmould above the lower window. There is a projecting gabled porch at the angle of the wing, which features a door in a moulded doorcase. The wing has a three-light window on the east end wall on each floor, both with hoodmoulds. The south end wall has three two-light windows, one of which has a dripstone.

The southwest wing is half-hipped at the west end and has a two-window range of two-light flush mullion windows, with one bead-moulded and one chamfered above, and two unmoulded below. Attached to the west is a stable range, dated R.B. 1844, which has a half-hipped slate roof at the west end. The two-storey north front of the stable range features segmental head openings with keystones, including two upper windows, a ground floor window, a door, and a stable door with a window on each side.
