Description

Woolbrook Farmhouse, dating from the 17th to 18th century, is a low two-storey building positioned at right angles to Woolbrook Road. It includes outbuildings at the north end, which are part of the same block. The residential section features cob walls, while the outbuildings are constructed of stone rubble. The entire structure is topped with a thatched roof. The residential part has four windows, mostly three-light easements, and two enclosed gabled porches. At the rear, the roof extends down over the ground floor. There is an external stone chimney with offsets and a tall red brick stack, and the rear elevation has been partly refaced in brick.
