Description

Littleton Farmhouse is a house that has been converted into flats at the rear. It dates from the 16th century, with early 19th-century elements and late 20th-century extensions. The building features roughcast, painted brick, and tile. The main section is from the early 19th century, while the original timber-framed structure serves as a cross-wing at the back. The symmetrical front, facing south, has two storeys and three windows, topped by a hipped roof. The walls are plain roughcast with a plinth, and it has Victorian sash windows. The doorway is plain, featuring a six-panelled door (two of which are glazed) and is sheltered by a flat-roofed open porch made from old timbers. The side elevations are constructed of brick in Flemish bond, with plain cement pilasters at the corners and a plinth. It has both sash and some casement windows. The rear section partially reveals the timber frame and includes 17th-century brickwork in the north gable, although this is partly obscured by the late 20th-century flat-roofed two-storey extensions. On the south face of the north side wing, there is a 17th-century doorway with a boarded door, a hood supported by carved brackets, and a Sun Fire Insurance sign. Inside, there is a plain early 19th-century stairway, panelled doors with architraves, and some exposed timber framing.
