Description

Little Sharsted Farmhouse is a hallhouse that has been converted into a farmhouse. It dates from the 15th century and has been clad in the 17th to 19th centuries. The structure is timber-framed and features 19th-century chequered brick on the left side, with plaster and applied timbers on the first floor, and 17th-century brickwork in English bond on the right side. The roof is plain tiled and hipped.

The building has two storeys, with a plinth on the right side and stacks located at the end left and centre right. On the first floor, there are three wooden casements with diamond-leaded lights. The ground floor features two 19th-century oriel windows on brackets, with the one on the right having a projecting 17th-century brick base. The central entrance consists of a boarded door set in a gabled porch with sidelights. At the rear, there is a 9-light window made of brick and plaster with mullions.
