Description
Little Rhoden is a former farmhouse dating from the early 19th century. It is built of Flemish bond yellow stock brick with red rubbed brick dressings, while the left side is rendered. The roof is slate, and there are brick stacks.
The house faces east and has a double-depth plan that is two rooms wide, with a central entrance likely leading to the staircase. There is a rear service wing at right angles to the main block, featuring an end stack.
The exterior is very well preserved, showcasing a symmetrical three-bay front with a deep hipped slate roof. The windows are adorned with flat rubbed brick arches and brick keyblocks. There are steps leading up to a central, panelled 19th-century front door, which includes a fanlight with spoke glazing bars, topped by a round-headed rubbed brick arch with a brick keyblock. The window embrasures have red brick jambs and are fitted with original four-pane sashes that feature margin glazing. On the right side, there are two original ground floor windows and one first-floor window, all with segmental rubbed brick arches and brick keyblocks, matching the front's original glazing except for one incomplete sash. The left side has one original ground floor window and two others with replaced glazing.
The interior has not been inspected but may still have original joinery.
