Description
Little Sharpshaw Farmhouse is a farmhouse built around 1650. It is constructed from local limestone rubble and features a clay pantile roof with a coped verge to the left on kneelers. The building has rubble end stacks, with the left stack having a brick addition. The farmhouse has a "T"-plan layout and is a symmetrical lobby entrance house, standing two storeys high with three bays. The windows are ovolo moulded stone mullions, with three lights in all but the center bay, which has two lights. The left ground floor has had its mullions removed and replaced with a 19th-century casement window. The ground floor openings feature labels above them. There is a central door opening with a 19th-century half-glazed door and a 20th-century gabled porch. To the left side, there is a pent-roofed outshut, and there is an attic light in each return.
