Description
Little Southend Cottage is likely a 17th or early 18th century cottage, with an extension added in the 19th century. The construction is timber-framed, with painted brick panels set within a rubble stone base, and a hipped tiled roof. A large external chimney stack made of local rubble stone rises centrally, with a detached brick shaft extending to the road front.
The garden front has one storey and an attic, arranged in three bays. The fenestration is regular, with 19th-century metal casement windows to the centre and right bays, and a smaller 4-pane wooden casement to the left bay. Three 20th-century gabled dormers are positioned over each bay. A 20th-century panelled door is located in the left bay. A lower, one-bay extension to the left, possibly dating to the early 19th century, is also present.
The decorative panelling on the right-hand two bays is regular, extending to the wall-plate, and features a deliberate decorative frieze effect: the panels are slightly lower in height between the windows and eaves, and beneath the centre and right windows. The tiling on the left-hand bay appears to be a later addition, indicated by its smaller timber scantling, as is the lower extension to the left, which also features painted brickwork designed to resemble timber framing. There are plank weatherboards protecting the ground-floor windows. A cellar is located under the right-hand bay.
