Description
Little Woodlands is a house that likely dates from the 1840s. It is constructed of flint with red sandstone dressings and features a slate roof that is gabled to the front on the right side. The main block has a left end stack with paired shafts, a rear right lateral stack, and an axial stack for the service wing at the back. The house is designed in a Tudor style, with some details and materials resembling those of Woodlands, which is in the same parish and is said to have inspired Little Woodlands.
The building has an L-shaped plan with two main rooms on either side of an entrance passage that contains the staircase. The right-hand room slightly projects to the front, and there is a rear service wing that runs at right angles to the main block.
The exterior is two storeys high and features an asymmetrical arrangement of windows, with a two by one window front. The right side has a gable with a parapet and moulded kneelers. In the centre, there is a two-centred pointed arched doorway with the original plank and cover strip front door. To the left of the front door, there is a well-detailed canted bay window with transomed lights and margin glazing, along with arched glazing bars above the transom that include stained glass. To the right of the door, there is a two-light transomed window also featuring ornamental glazing bars above the transom. The first-floor windows are two-light casements with glazing bars, and there is a decayed date or inscription stone in the gable on the right. The left side of the house has one transomed two-light window with ornamental glazing bars to the right, a blocked ground floor window to the left, and two first-floor two-light casements with glazing bars. In front of the house, there is a coeval flint garden wall topped with irregular stone capping.
The interior has not been thoroughly inspected, but it is known to include an early 19th-century staircase and joinery, with other original details likely still present.
