Little Choppins Farmhouse

Little Choppins Farmhouse is a house dating from the late 15th century. It is timber-framed and roughcast, topped with a thatched roof that is half-hipped at both ends. The house features an axial chimney made of painted red brick and a gable chimney on the right side. It is a 3-cell open-hall house with two storeys. The windows are mainly 20th-century small-pane casements, although some original windows are exposed and glazed. There is a 20th-century hipped plaintiled entrance porch with a glazed battened and boarded door.

The structure is notably complete and fully exposed. The two-bay open hall has all four doorways in the cross-entry, featuring hollow-chamfered four-centred arches. While the hall's open truss is concealed, part of the chamfered arch-braces are visible, showing evidence of pilaster-shafts below. The hall has six-light windows with transoms, retaining some square mullions. At the dais end, there is good tension-braced close-studding, and the roof is a complete smoke-encrusted coupled-rafter design. The end cells have diamond-mullioned windows and arch-braced studwork at the corners. The floor joists are heavy and unchamfered, and the service rooms were previously separated by a wattle-and-daub partition. There is evidence for speres at the cross-entry and at the parlour doorway.

An upper floor has been inserted with chamfered joists in the hall, and there is a large altered open fireplace backing onto the cross-entry, both dating from around 1600. Additionally, there is a rear two-storey extension from the mid-20th century.
