Description
Brookside House and Brookside Cottage are two attached houses dating from the 18th century, with a datestone on the first floor of Brookside House reading "C S H 1754". The buildings are constructed of coursed and squared rubble and feature a pantile roof divided into two distinct halves, with coped verges and one rendered section alongside two brick stacks. The structure has two storeys and is arranged in two sections with three bays on one side and two bays on the other. The first floor has two-light moulded stone mullioned windows, while the ground floor has conforming three-light windows. The central door opening on the left side features a six-panelled door with the top two panels glazed and is topped by a stone slab hood supported by console brackets. The right side has a door opening with a panelled door and a transom light. Inside Brookside House, there are original cupboards and a fireplace with a broad wooden bressumer.
