Description
Brook House Farmhouse is a farmhouse and coach-house, now used as a house, dating from the late 17th century to early 18th century. It is constructed of rubble with stone slate roofs and has two storeys. The façade features a symmetrical arrangement of four first-floor windows. To the left is a one-bay coach-house. The house has quoins and a central gabled porch made of quoined stone, which has two lower storeys. The porch contains a part-glazed six-panel door set in an ashlar surround, and in the gable, there is an oculus with decorative glazing bars in an ashlar surround, along with parallel tooling. A small single-light window is located on the left return of the porch. On the ground floor to the left, there is a two-light double-chamfered mullion window. The other windows are 20th-century casements with projecting slab sills and lintels. The house has end stacks, with the left stack featuring a triangular slate pot. To the left of the house, the former coach-house has leaved board garage doors beneath a curved timber lintel with a drip mould, and a 20th-century casement window is located above on the first floor.
