Little Brewers

Little Brewers is a house dating from the late 16th century, with alterations made in the 18th century and extensions added in the 20th century. It is timber framed and plastered, with a roof covered in red clay tiles. The building consists of three bays aligned north-south, with a west-facing aspect and a chimney stack located in the northeast of the middle bay, which forms a lobby entrance.

A two-storey porch extension was added to the west of the middle bay in the 20th century, along with a two-storey extension to the east of the north bay, creating an L-shaped plan. Additionally, a two-storey extension was added to the south in 1977. The house has two storeys, with a plain boarded door and three 20th-century casement windows on the ground floor. The first floor features four 20th-century casement windows. The roof has a shallow pitch and is hipped at both ends.

Internally, some framing is partly exposed. The upper floor at each end of the original building has unglazed windows with three diamond mullions, which are now enclosed by the 20th-century extensions. There is also a ground floor window in the east wall of the middle bay. The heavy studding reaches approximately 2.75 meters high, with some original wattle and daub infill, and the ends were originally half-hipped. The walls were raised by about 1.5 meters in the 18th century with lighter studding and were weatherboarded. An aperture was cut in the studding to the west of the chimney stack for an external bread oven in the 18th century, which has since been demolished. The original internal tiebeams have been removed.

In the early 19th century, the house was converted into three tenements, as recorded in the tithe award of 1843, but it was later recombined to form a single house.
