Littlewood And Sisley Including Adjoining Stable Block

Littlewood and Sisley is a house, now divided into two residences, dating from around 1740, with significant additions made in the early 19th century. The building is constructed of English garden wall bond brick, with a slate roof. The original three-bay, two-storey house, facing south, has three windows on each floor. It features replacement casement windows and cambered brick arches above the ground-floor openings. A four-panel door is located between the second and third bays. The house was extended to the left with a gabled wing, and to the rear with a taller, two-storey range, which now forms a separate residence. The additions incorporate mullion and transom casements, as well as 16-pane sash windows. Brick chimney stacks are present. The stable block has an arched entrance. Internally, original features remain, including doors, a dogleg staircase, and built-in furniture. Historically, the house was the residence of John Clarke, a mill-owner, and was once used as a preaching house, with a chapel located on the first floor.
