Millbrook Ho.

On high ground with good views in all directions overlooking nearby bridge (TS051-026----) c. 200m to S and mill (TS051-025----) c. 100m to S. Modern bungalow built on site of Millbrook House which was pulled down in the 1940s according to the current landowner who described the old house as having an egg-shaped or oval-shaped thatched roof. Described as one of three thatchted houses in the Civil Survey (Simington 1934, vol. 2, 83) and depicted on the Down Survey map (1655-6) as having a dome-shaped roof. Only fragmentary remains of a walled garden associated with Millbrook House survive where they are incorporated into agricultural buildings. Compiled by: Jean Farrelly Date of upload: 26 August 2011
