Description
Fox Hill House is a house built around 1830, with extensions added in the mid-19th century. It is constructed of rendered brick and features a slate roof with gabled ends, overhanging verges, and eaves. The house has two rendered brick axial stacks that are symmetrical on the ridge.
The building has a rectangular plan with a central entrance hall and two service wings at the rear, which were added in the mid-19th century. It stands two storeys high with an attic and has a symmetrical three-window south front. The large 20-pane sashes are set in giant semi-circular headed recesses, with the center recess being narrower and topped with a small pedimental gable that contains a semi-circular recessed lunette with intersecting glazing bars. The central recessed doorway features a semi-circular fanlight with radiating glazing bars, pilasters, and a glazed door. The side elevations have blind and sash windows with glazing bars, and there is a semi-circular attic lunette in the gable.
At the rear, there are two short brick wings; the right wing has a pointed arch loft doorway in the gable end, while the left wing features a very large brick stack and a lean-to outshut on the gable end, which includes a lunette in an arched recess. The interior has not been inspected.
