Description
Little Bamson is a cottage likely dating from the late 18th or early 19th century. It is constructed with plastered cob walls on rubble footings, featuring a cob or rubble stack with a 19th-century brick chimney shaft and a thatched roof. The cottage originally comprised two rooms, with a projecting end stack on the larger, western room. The front elevation has a near-symmetrical appearance with two windows on each storey. The windows are late 19th-century casements with glazing bars and unusually tall, narrow glass panes; the first-floor window on the right-hand side is a replacement casement, also with glazing bars. A central door is sheltered by a 20th-century slate-roofed porch with plank walls. The roof is gable-ended on the right, and hipped on the left. The interior has not been inspected.
