Description

Little Brampton Farmhouse is a farmhouse dating from the mid-to-late 17th century, which was remodeled and extended in the early 19th century, with later additions and alterations. The building is timber framed with painted brick infill on a rendered plinth, and has roughcast rubblestone additions. It features slate and graded slate roofs. The 17th-century section appears to consist of two framed bays but was probably originally longer, aligned north-south, with a brick outshut on the west side. There is a taller early 19th-century addition at right angles to the south.

The 19th-century addition is two storeys high with a gabled roof and has an outshut adjoining it, projecting at right angles to the west of the 17th-century part. The 17th-century section has one storey and a gable-lit attic, while the 19th-century addition has two storeys and a gable-lit attic. The framing of the 17th-century part features square panels, three from the cill to the wall-plate, with regularly coursed limestone rubble on the gable end. The 19th-century addition forms the current main front, which has a window arrangement of 1:2:2, with the second and third bays from the left forming a projecting gable that includes a window in the centre for the attic. The windows throughout are glazing bar sashes, with a tripartite window in the lower right.

The entrance is located in the angle between the gable and the section to the right, featuring a six-panel door with a rectangular barred overlight beneath a lean-to porch. The building has integral brick end stacks with dentilled capping, and there is a tall brick end stack, also with dentilled capping, at the junction of the 17th-century range and the 19th-century addition. The interior has not been inspected but is noted to have panelled window shutters in the 19th-century addition.
