Description

Hillock is a former pair of dwellings built in the mid-18th century, with 19th-century and recent alterations. The building is constructed of coursed rubble and features quoins, with a pitched tiled roof supported by one ashlar and one modern stack. It stands two storeys high.

On the east elevation, the southern part is older than the northern part. The southern section has an entrance with a deep lintel and a three-light chamfered stone mullioned window. Above, on the first floor, there is a two-light chamfered stone mullioned window. The northern part includes a recent stone porch and a modern bow window on the ground floor, while the first floor features a seven-light stone mullioned window. Additionally, there is a single-storey stone extension on the south gable, which may have been rebuilt or altered.

Hillock sits in a wetter-than-average part of the UK, with an average of 990 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 79% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 72% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 48 freeze-thaw cycles a year, more than 90% of listed buildings. Of these, 28 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
