Little Netherton

Little Netherton is a farmhouse dating from the 15th or early 16th century, with possible alterations in the 17th and 18th centuries, and further work in 1843, evidenced by a datestone. The construction combines Flemish bond brickwork on a squared, coursed stone plinth on the right side, with brick-nogged timber framing to the left. The roof is slate, with Sussex-bond brickwork to a lean-to extension, and corrugated-iron to another section. The building has a "T" plan, incorporating a short two-room cross wing and a three-window, two-storey main section, with a part-loftted three-bay attached end.

The front elevation features the cross wing on the right. A half-circular arched doorway in the stone plinth leads to a cellar, with a rubbed brick arch, hoodmould, stone imposts and keystone (bearing a datestone). Window openings with iron bars flank the doorway, also with rubbed brick arches. Central sash windows are present on both the ground and first floors; these have stone lintels and dummy keystones. A wide, flat eaves soffit runs along the front, and the hipped roof supports chimneys which rise from the eaves alongside each window. The ground level on the front is elevated, with two sash windows on each floor of the cross wing. An open verandah with timber posts on stone bases and a corrugated-iron roof covers the front of the main section. Behind the house, stone steps with an iron railing lead to a six-panel door on the left return of the cross wing, set within a cambered brick arch. Steps also lead down to the cellar. Other openings include a six-pane sash window and a boarded door under a cambered brick arch. A single-storey lean-to brick extension with a corrugated-iron roof is located on the left side.

The rear features a boarded door under the verandah and a two-light casement window. A first-floor window with leaded lights is visible above the lean-to, along with a timber-framed wall containing two two-light casements. A ridge chimney stands at the right-hand end of the timber framing. A timber-framed extension, likely a former farm building, is situated on the left with lower eaves, exhibiting some wattle and daub, some boards between studs, and some weatherboarding. Various lean-to additions to the front are not considered to be of special interest.

Internally, brick arches support the cellar walls below the cross wing. A cruck truss, with the top cut off due to lowering of the roof pitch, is visible in the left gable of the two-storey timber-framed section. A king-post truss is present in the framed building beyond, while the remainder of the roof has been renewed.
