Bromes House

Bromes House is a farmhouse, now a house, with medieval origins. A datestone on the porch dates a restoration and alteration to 1627, with some minor work from the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of coursed rubble, with some areas roughcast and colourwashed, topped by a thatched roof and brick stacks. It has two storeys and a garden front featuring a layout of 1:1:1:2 bays, predominantly with 3-light wood and stone mullioned windows. The left bay has a projecting wing with a coped verge, and there is a projecting gabled porch at the centre, also with coping and a finial, above which is a 3-light stone-mullioned window on the first floor. The door opening has a four-centred arch in a chamfered freestone surround, leading to an inner door framed by a moulded wooden architrave, with a studded plank door and strap hinges. Inside, there are notable features such as ceiling beams, a plank and muntin partition, and a good plaster frieze on the first floor, along with a fireplace in a stone surround with a four-centred arch head. The roof retains remains of a cruck truss.
