Description
East Hook Farm, situated some 180m south of the cliff-edge, formed part of the East Hook estate. The rear of the house is thought to derive from a longhouse. In 1624 the farm was referred to as Nesshooke. At that time there was also a Nesshooke Mill, but its location is unknown. In 1773 the farm was referred to as Nesthook. The house is mainly Georgian in appearance, and its front section dates to 1760. In 1786-1790, the farm was in the ownership of John Lort Esquire. In 1840 the farm covered some 240 acres. The house has a Chinese Chippendale staircase dating to the late nineteenth century, reputed to be one of only five in Wales.
