What is recorded here
Brookfield House in Cherrybrook got plastic windows at the front and kept the old timber ones behind. The farmhouse equivalent of announcing you've moved with the times while your mother lives round the back and disputes every word.
Detached three-bay two-storey with attic former farm house, built c.1800, with outbuildings to rear. Hipped slate roof with ashlar stone chimneystacks and two dormer windows. Rendered rubble stone walls. Replacement uPVC windows with tooled limestone sills. Applied stucco over stone surrounds to front elevation. Timber sash windows to rear elevation. Tooled stone door surround and stone steps to entrance. L-plan outbuildings to rear yard enclosed by random coursed stone wall and wrought-iron gates. Wrought-iron gates flanked by rendered piers to front of site.
The simple regular façade of the substantial former farmhouse is enlivened by the stone window and door surrounds. The house and outbuildings form an interesting group of farm related structures.
