Description
Thornhill is a house dating from the early 19th century, located on Main Road in the parish of Eckington. It is built from regularly coursed ashlar coal measures sandstone, featuring ashlar dressings, quoins, and coped gables with moulded kneelers. The house has brick gable stacks, with the one at the east end reduced in height, and is covered with Welsh slates.
The building is two storeys high and has three bays, with late 19th-century sash windows that have horns and are set in flush stone surrounds. The central doorway has a moulded surround, an open pediment, and an oval fanlight with intersecting glazing bars, leading to a three-panelled door.
To the east side of the house, there is a low boundary wall with moulded copings topped by spear-headed cast iron railings, while the front features a solid stone wall with plain coping.
