Description
Littlecourt is a house located on Warfield Road in Bracknell, dating from the early 18th century, with alterations made in the early 20th century. The building is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, featuring vitreous headers, and has tiled, hipped roofs. It has a double pile plan consisting of four cells, with an extension on the left side.
The house is two storeys high and has three chimneys, each topped with corniced heads and clay pots. The front façade, which faces the road, is symmetrical and consists of three bays. The central entrance door has four flat panels and one decorative glazed panel, framed in a moulded architrave within a projecting porch. The porch is supported by wide reeded columns and features a frieze adorned with triglyphs and paterae, a cornice, and a central pediment with bolection moulding. The windows on the front are original sash windows with glazing bars and moulded architrave frames, while the rear has casement windows. The windows have gauged brick arches, with those on the ground floor having segmental heads. A platband runs at first floor level, and the eaves are decorated with brick dentils.
Inside, the living room features a 18th-century moulded wooden fireplace and a dentilled ceiling cornice. There is a door with panelled pilasters and egg-and-dart ornamentation, topped by a semicircular radiating fanlight. A corner niche is present, with fluted pilasters, a round-headed arched head, and shaped shelves. The study contains an 18th-century chimneypiece with a fluted frieze decorated with rosettes and fluted pilasters, along with egg-and-dart ornamentation. An 18th-century corner cupboard has two doors with panels carved with foliage and fruit. The staircase features a straight flight with barley sugar balusters and carved tread ends.
At the rear, 'The Annex' is a later extension that has been converted into a separate house.
