Brook House, And Front Boundary Walls

Brook House is a semi-detached house dating from the early to mid-19th century. It is constructed of ham stone ashlar with a Welsh slate roof of a shallow pitch, featuring stepped coped gables and stone and brick chimney stacks. The house has two storeys and three bays. The first bay contains three-light, hollow-chamfered mullioned windows recessed within chamfered surrounds, each with a label. Bays two and three have 16-pane sash windows in plain openings. A projecting porch is situated between bays one and two; it is open with semi-circular arches to the front and sides, supported by panelled piers with imposts, and featuring an architrave and console keystone to the arch, a cornice mould, and a step to a flat roof. Further mullioned windows are present in the north gable. The interior has not been inspected.

An ashlar boundary wall, approximately one metre high with thin coping, surrounds the front garden and is attached to the adjacent building to the south (which is not part of this listing). It has upsweeps to square gatepiers topped with pyramids, framing 20th-century iron gates. The wall continues around the north boundary, with some sections stepped up approximately 500mm, and features a curved corner. The wall enhances the setting of the house and contributes to the character of the streetscene at a significant junction in the village centre.
