Description
Littleton Manor is a manor house dating from the 15th century, with alterations made in the 17th, 18th, and late 19th centuries. The structure is timber-framed with plaster and flint infill, encased in brick and later stuccoed, topped with an old plain tile roof featuring medieval-style ridge tiles. The house has a three-bay hall design, with an additional bay added to the right in the 17th century and a parallel range added to the rear left in the 19th century, along with smaller outbuildings.
The front of the house is two stories high and has four bays. There is a 19th-century half-glazed double door to the left of center, which is sheltered by an early 18th-century flat hood supported by moulded console brackets. To the right of the door is an 18th-century 16-pane sash window, and to the left is an 18th-century 20-pane sash window. At the left end, there is a 19th-century 4-pane sash window. Above the door and the window to its left is a 19th-century 4-pane sash with a small gablet above it, and immediately to the left of that window is another similar sash in the right bay. The windows are fitted with louvred shutters. There are 19th-century stacks on each side of the two central bays, with the left stack being a 16th-century chimney and the right stack being at the end of the original building. The roof is half hipped.
Inside, the left bay serves as a service area, the next wider bay is the hall, followed by the parlour and the added right bay. The hall features a moulded 17th-century ceiling and fireplace. The parlour has always had a ceiling and includes an inserted 17th-century oak staircase with turned balusters, a moulded handrail, and square newels, which were remodelled in the 20th century. The roof is accessed through the staircase in the 17th-century bay against the original gable, which displays exposed close studding with flint infill. The roof structure features a fine arch brace design with two bays over the hall, where all members are chamfered and the spandrels are infilled. The parlour bay has an open collar, while the service bay has plain timbers.
