Brook, Hampshire

Brook is a small medieval hamlet situated 1-2 miles south of the village of King's Somborne in the Test Valley, Hampshire.

Brook features on a number of mediaeval maps of Hampshire and England, and has a significant population until the 17th century, when the population was decimated by the plague.

The most significant Building in Brook today is Brook Farm House, a farmhouse dating the early 16th Century which may have been the original manor house.
