Description
Little Halston is a farmhouse dating from 1780, with extensions added in the late 18th or early 19th century. The building is constructed of red brick in a Flemish bond pattern, topped with a plain tile roof featuring gabled ends and a brick dentil eaves course. Brick gable-end stacks are present. The plan comprises a two-room, single-depth main range with a central entrance, and a long service wing at the centre rear, which incorporates stables and a loft at one end. A single-storey wing is situated at the rear right.
The west front is symmetrical, with three windows. The ground floor features tall, late 18th-century cross-mullion-transom windows with casements and glazing bars, set within original cambered arch openings. Smaller windows with 20th-century casements are on the first floor. A central doorway contains a circa late 19th-century glazed and panelled door. A left-hand extension has a cross-mullion-transom window, a plank door, and a brick dentil course above. At the rear, a long, one-and-a-half-storey wing is centered, with stable doors on the north side and a loft door in the gable end.
Internally, much of the original joinery remains, including the original staircase with stick balusters and square newels, doors, and apparently some chimney pieces. The attic roof is exposed, featuring large side purlins and common-rafter couples.
