Brook House Farm, Halewood.

Brook House on the sharp bend in Lower Road almost under Speke Boulevard (A562). A typical 19th century farmhouse, it no doubt gets its name from Ditton Brook which runs behind the property. An important Iron Age farmstead, which radiocarbon dating shows was in use between c400-50 BC, was excavated here prior to the construction of the A5300 link road. The site had been damaged during construction of the A562. See link to Liverpool Museum website:- http://www.liverpoolmuseums.org.uk/mol/archaeology/field/projects/ironage/brook_house_farm.aspx
