Description

Hill Top and Hollybush Top are a late 17th-century cottage and barn, now converted into two separate cottages. The buildings are timber-framed with painted brick infill and thatched roofs, featuring 20th-century brick stacks. Hill Top has a single storey with attic space cut into the thatch. It features two 20th-century casement windows and a central plank door sheltered by a 20th-century porch; a small oven projection is visible to the side. Hollybush Top has a projecting lean-to with a rubble plinth and a catslide roof. A plank door is positioned on the right side, and a projecting brick stack with offsets is on the left gable end. The rear elevation contains a mix of casement windows, dormer windows, and 20th-century lean-to additions.
