Description

Edbrook is a farmhouse and adjoining loft over a cattle byre, dated 1607, with later enlargements and changes to the windows in the late 18th to early 19th centuries. The building is constructed from flat bedded, random rubble with a slate roof. It features stone stacks located between the first and second bays on the left side at the gable end of the original building and on the right at the junction with the farmbuilding.

The farmhouse has a two-cell and cross passage layout set into a hillside, with one bay added to the left and a two-bay farmbuilding on the right. It is two stories high and has four bays. The first floor has late 18th to early 19th century leaded iron casements, while the ground floor features a left bevelled aris to the wall, a plank door, and a wooden casement to the left of the main entrance. To the right, there is another plank door with a leaded iron casement. There are two square-headed openings leading to the byre, and access to the loft is assumed to be on the right gable end. A small date stone is set between the third and fourth bays on the left, reading "RV 1607."

The interior was not accessible at the time of the survey, but it is said to contain chamfered beams with enriched stops and possibly evidence that the building evolved differently from the original plan.
