Description
Littlefields is a detached farmhouse dating from around 1700. It is constructed of ham stone ashlar and near-ashlar, with a Welsh slate roof featuring stepped coped gables and brick and rendered chimney stacks. The building has two storeys, an attic, and a basement, and consists of six bays.
Key architectural features include a plinth, an eaves course, and a continuous label at both levels, with the lower label stepped up over the doorway. The windows are ovolo-mould mullioned in wave-mould recesses, all being 2-light and rectangular-leaded. The fourth bay on the lower level features a projecting porch made of ashlar with a pitched slated roof and an obelisk finial on the coped gable. The porch contains a boarded door set in a cambered archway.
On the west gable, there is a 2-light blind attic window that matches the others, a single-light window on the first floor, and a 20th-century 2-light window on the ground floor, which is located in a former doorway. The basement includes a cambered-arched doorway and a small 3-light window. There is also a later outshut at the rear. The interior has not been seen.
