Little Pitt Cottage is a medieval house in Llanarth, Monmouthshire, south Wales. It was designated in 1956 as a fine and exceptionally intact timber-framed house with a cruck trussed gable, timber frame exposed, and four monumental centred doorways, modified to form a three-unit plan in the 17th century.[1][2][3]

The windows have timber lintels under a painted stone dripmould. The ends of beams for the inserted hall floor are visible.[2]
