What is recorded here
Willbrook House in Willbrook has rare trees in the grounds and a derelict lodge by the gate. A splendid address, provided you put down roots in the botanical sense. Turn up with a suitcase and you’ve misunderstood the accommodation.
Detached former country house. Entrance screen comprising four rendered gate piers, cast-iron gates and railings on low plinth wall. Detached three-bay single-storey gate lodge, c.1820, now derelict, set within. Smooth rendered walls, canted bay window, blocked openings, pitched slate roof.
A simple, elegant entrance screen with a modest lodge set inside, leading to mature grounds containing many unusual specimens, planted by Sir Frederick Moore.
