The Lyttons

The Lyttons is a house with origins dating back to the 16th century, featuring extensions and alterations from the 17th century, along with a 20th-century addition to the right end. The structure is timber framed, with some exposed timber on the left side and brick infill, while the center and right are clad in brown brick. It has a plain tiled roof with tile-hung gables, some of which display a fishscale pattern. The house has an L-shaped plan with a wing at the rear right and stands two storeys high, partly over a cellar on the left. It features a plinth and brick dentilled eaves, with ridge stacks positioned to the left of center.

On the front left, there is a square, gabled 17th-century stair-vice that projects out, which has one window on the first floor. To the right on the first floor, there is one casement window, while below it, there are two windows under cambered heads, and one window on the ground floor left. A gabled extension set back to the right has irregular casement windows, with two on each floor. The entrance features a half-glazed door with a margin light under a cambered head, located at the junction with the main range.

The left-hand return front has a tile-hung gable and a plat band over the first floor, with one three-light casement window on each floor. A pentice roof porch on the ground floor leads to a glazed door. At the rear, there is a stack at the re-entrant angle, with some galleted clunch and ironstone rubble walling that includes brick dressings.

Inside, the ground floor room features ceiling frames with a central moulded spine beam and a deep brick fireplace. The first floor has a cambered tie beam, and above the fireplace, there is a plaster panel marked with the date "I.D. 1663, B.I.D. 1663."
