Description
Hill House is a farmhouse, now a house, dating from the mid-18th century, with alterations made in the mid-19th century. It is constructed of sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings and features slate roofs that have gable-end parapets and finials, along with ashlar stacks located at the east end of the main ridge, the center of the west wing ridge, and the west side of the west wing roof. The building has an L-plan layout, consisting of a main three-bay range aligned east to west, with a cross-wing at the west end that projects to the south.
The house is two storeys high with an attic and has an ashlar string course at the first-floor level. The windows are adorned with hoodmoulds that have returns. On the main south elevation, the main range features two ground floor and three first floor 12-pane sash windows. The entrance, located at the left end, has a flat ashlar canopy supported by moulded ashlar brackets, a six-panelled door, and a transom light above. The gable end of the left wing includes a large chamfered mullioned window with two lights on both the ground and first floors, each light containing an 8-pane sash. There is also an attic light in the gable.
At the east end, there is a single-storey wing that has been incorporated into the house, featuring a square window and a 20th-century door on its south elevation. The main entrance door at the rear of the house is similarly detailed to the one on the south elevation and is located next to the cross-wing, creating a through passage.
